Rabbit Anti-GPR109B, NT (HCAR3, GPR109B, HCA3, HM74B, NIACR2, Hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 3, Nicotinic acid receptor 2, G-protein coupled receptor 109B, G-protein coupled receptor HM74, G-protein coupled receptor HM74B, Niacin receptor 2)
HCAR3, GPR109B, HCA3, HM74B, NIACR2, Hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 3, Nicotinic acid receptor 2, G-protein coupled receptor 109B, G-protein coupled receptor HM74, G-protein coupled receptor HM74B, Niacin receptor 2

Receptor for 3-OH-octanoid acid mediates a negative feedback regulation of adipocyte lipolysis to counteract prolipolytic influences under conditions of physiological or pathological increases in beta-oxidation rates. Acts as a low affinity receptor for nicotinic acid. This pharmacological effect requires nicotinic acid doses that are much higher than those provided by a normal diet.

Applications
Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications have not been tested.
Recommended Dilutions
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
