General description
Perilipin is an intracellular neutral lipid storage droplet surface protein in white and brown fat adipocytes. It is also found in lower quantity coating droplets in steroidogenic-cells of the adrenal cortex, ovaries, and testicular Leydig cells, on the surface of smaller droplets containing cholesteryl esters.
Specificity
Rabbit polyclonal anti-Perilipin A/B antibody recognizes mouse Perilipin A/B by immunoblotting (46 kDa and ~62 kDa) and indirect immunofluorescence. Detection of the perilipin A and B bands by immunoblotting is specifically inhibited with the immunizing peptide.
Immunogen
synthetic peptide corresponding amino acid residues 6-17 of mouse and rat perilipin A/B with C-terminal added cysteine, conjugated to KLH. The corresponding human sequence differs by two residues.
Application
Anti-Perilipin A/B antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoblotting and immunofluorescence staining.
Rabbit polyclonal anti-Perilipin A/B antibody is used to tag Perilipin A/B for detection and quantitation by immunocytochemical and immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the presence and roles of Perilipin A/B in the regulation of triacylglycerol storage in adipocytes.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Perilipin is a gatekeeper protein that is involved in regulating triacylglycerol storage in adipocyte through the suppression of basal lipolysis apparently through protecting triacylglycerol against hydrolysis. Perilipin also enhances cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA)-stimulated lipolysis by hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) and non-HSLs. Perilipin knockout mice exhibit reduced adipose tissue mass and resistance to diet induced obesity. Their lipid storage droplets are coated with adipose differentiation-related protein (ADRP, adipophilin), that is devoid of phosphorylation by PKA.

During the aging process, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) exhibit declined osteogenesis accompanied by excess adipogenesis, which will lead to osteoporosis. Here, we report that the H3 lysine 36 trimethylation (H3K36me3), catalyzed by histone methyltransferase SET-domain-containing 2 (SETD2), regulates

The regenerative capacity of skeletal muscle declines with age. Previous studies suggest that this process can be reversed by exposure to young circulation; however, systemic age-specific factors responsible for this phenomenon are largely unknown. Here we report that oxytocin--a hormone
