They participate in the transport of fatty acids and other lipids to various cellular pathways . The predominant fatty acid binding protein found in adipocytes is FABP4, also called adipocyte fatty acid binding protein or aP2. FABP4 is also expressed in macrophages . FABP4 knockout mice fed a high-fat and high-calorie diet become obese but develop neither insulin resistance nor diabetes, suggesting that this protein might be a link between obesity and insulin resistance and diabetes . Mice deficient in both FABP4 and ApoE show protection against atherosclerosis when compared with mice deficient only in ApoE . Mice carrying a FABP4 genetic variant exhibit both reduced FABP4 expression and a reduced potential for developing type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease. A related study in humans indicated a similar pattern, suggesting that FABP4 may be a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of these disorders .\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProduct: Mouse IgG1.

The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0). The section was then incubated with the antibody at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eBioworld Molecular Weight: ~ 15 kDa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStorage and Stability: Store at 4°C short term.
