Leptin (LEP) Rat Active Protein
For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures. Catalog #: MBS692099Encoded by the ob (obese) gene, Leptin is an adipose-derived cytokine that suppresses appetite and increases thermogenesis. Leptin exerts its anorectic effect via signaling through a hypothalamic receptor termed OB-R. Leptin has been shown to reduce body… More details

Biological Activity
Determined by an in vivo assay using the ob/ob mouse obesity model and NZO. Both strains of mice were treated via intraperitoneal injection once daily at a dose of 5ug leptin/gm of body weight for 7 days. Significant effects on body weight, food consumption, and plasma glucose levels were observed to saline-treated controls.

NCBI Summary for Lep
involved in regulation of body weight, and may have a role in angiogenesis [RGD, Feb 2006]
UniProt Comments for Lep
Function: May function as part of a signaling pathway that acts to regulate the size of the body fat depot. An increase in the level of Lep may act directly or indirectly on the CNS to inhibit food intake and/or regulate energy expenditure as part of a homeostatic mechanism to maintain constancy of the adipose mass.
Subcellular location: Secreted
Probable.
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the leptin family.
