Biolegend, 444304, ELISA MAX™ Deluxe Set Human Leptin, 5plates

Human Leptin is a 167 amino acid protein and approximately 16 kD in mass. Leptin is encoded by the obese (ob) gene and the gene locates on chromosome 7. Leptin is an adipocyte-derived hormone and mainly secreted by adipocyte. Small amounts of Leptin are expressed by the cells in the epithelium of the stomach and in the placenta. Leptin’s effects on body weight are mediated through impacts on hypothalamic center that control feeding behavior, hunger, body temperature, and energy expenditure. Leptin importantly regulates food intake, body weight, metabolism, energy expenditure, reproductive function, and adiposity through hypothalamic Leptin receptor. Leptin is also the member of long-chain helical cytokine family.
