Application

Anti-Perilipin A/B antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoblotting and immunofluorescence staining.
Rabbit polyclonal anti-Perilipin A/B antibody is used to tag Perilipin A/B for detection and quantitation by immunocytochemical and immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the presence and roles of Perilipin A/B in the regulation of triacylglycerol storage in adipocytes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Perilipin is a gatekeeper protein that is involved in regulating triacylglycerol storage in adipocyte through the suppression of basal lipolysis apparently through protecting triacylglycerol against hydrolysis. Perilipin also enhances cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA)-stimulated lipolysis by hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) and non-HSLs. Perilipin knockout mice exhibit reduced adipose tissue mass and resistance to diet induced obesity. Their lipid storage droplets are coated with adipose differentiation-related protein (ADRP, adipophilin), that is devoid of phosphorylation by PKA.
Rabbit polyclonal anti-Perilipin A/B antibody recognizes mouse Perilipin A/B by immunoblotting (46 kDa and ~62 kDa) and indirect immunofluorescence. Detection of the perilipin A and B bands by immunoblotting is specifically inhibited with the immunizing peptide.

Disclaimer

Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals.

General description

Perilipin is an intracellular neutral lipid storage droplet surface protein in white and brown fat adipocytes. It is also found in lower quantity coating droplets in steroidogenic-cells of the adrenal cortex, ovaries, and testicular Leydig cells, on the surface of smaller droplets containing cholesteryl esters.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding amino acid residues 6-17 of mouse and rat perilipin A/B with C-terminal added cysteine, conjugated to KLH. The corresponding human sequence differs by two residues.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
