Background Descriptions: Visfatin is a cytokine highly expressed in visceral fat and blood. This protein has also been reported to be a cytokine (PBEF) that promotes B cell maturation and inhibits neutrophil apoptosis. Visfatin is thought to have insulin-like activities and is able to bind insulin receptor and thus, may lead to lowering blood glucose levels.
Handling: The antibody solution should be gently mixed before use.
Usage: For Research Use Only! Not to be used in humans. |
