Description: Leptin is a hormone secreted from white adipocytes and plays important role in the regulation of food intake and energy balance. Leptin functions via signaling pathways involving OB-R in hypothalamus. Animal models have revealed the influence of Leptin in reducing body weight and regulating blood...

Protein function: Key player in the regulation of energy balance and body weight control. Once released into the circulation, has central and peripheral effects by binding LEPR, found in many tissues, which results in the activation of several major signaling pathways. In the hypothalamus, acts as an...

Protein Construction: Recombinant Mouse Leptin is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Val22-Cys167 is expressed. Sequence: Val22-Cys167. Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per µg as determined by the LAL method. Apparent Molecular Mass: 14 kDa. Protein function: Leptin is a hormone secreted from...
