Test Principle: Fatty acid is an important source of energy for the body. Fatty acid intake capacity has been associated with diseases such as obesity and diabetes, and is therefore an important target for the treatment of diseases such as obesity, Ⅱ diabetes, and fatty liver. Hyperactive cancer cells have a strong fatty acid uptake capacity, so the fatty acid uptake capacity is also used as an important indicator of cancer drug development, and the fatty acid pathway is also attracted attention as one of the targets of cancer drug development.
This kit provides a convenient fluorescence assay to measure the cell's ability to take up fatty acids. Fatty acid substrate can enter the cell through the fatty acid transporter on the cell membrane, and the ability of cells to take up fatty acid can be detected by fluorescence microscopy, fluorescence microplate reader, flow cytometry and other instruments to detect the fluorescence intensity.
