FABP-1 is abundantly expressed in the liver and also found in the intestine and kidneys. It functions by binding long-chain fatty acids and other lipophilic substances facilitating their transport within cells. The protein aids intracellular lipid trafficking assisting in the storage and metabolism of fatty acids.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nFABP-1 assists cells in maintaining lipid homeostasis by transporting these fatty acids to different cellular compartments for oxidation signaling or storage. It does not form part of a complex but independently interacts with lipids to buffer their concentration within the cytoplasm. Its role in lipid transport is essential for maintaining metabolic balance and energy production.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nFABP-1 participates in key metabolic pathways specifically the lipid metabolism and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling pathway. These pathways influence energy homeostasis and lipid modulation within cells. FABP-1 interacts with other proteins such as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) which regulates the expression of genes involved in lipid metabolic processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nFABP-1 shows connections to liver conditions and metabolic syndrome. Altered levels of FABP-1 can indicate liver injury and could be used as a biomarker for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). FABP-1 also connects to apolipoprotein E (ApoE) a protein involved in lipid metabolism in relation to the development and progression of atherosclerosis impacting cardiovascular health.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843857043625,"sku":"ab206788","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab206788","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
