Description: Leptin (anti-obesity protein) is the product of the ob (obese) gene in mice and is involved in appetite control. The gene is expressed in adipose tissue and it is thought to be important in the regulation of fat stores. Mice of ob/ob genotype develop a form of diabetes similar to type II (non-insulin dependent) diabetes. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry and Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:4000 Immunohistochemistry (frozen sections): 1:1000 Immunocytochemistry: 1:1000 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile glycerol (40-50%), aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. |
