Anti-FABP3 (human)

Recognizes human FABP3. Detects a band of about 15kDa by Western blot. Liquid. 0.2µm-filtered solution in PBS, pH 7.4. Contains no preservatives. FABP3 is a fatty acid binding protein in adipocytes. Fatty acid binding proteins are a family of small, highly conserved, cytoplasmic proteins that bind long-chain fatty acids and other hydrophobic ligands. FABPs regulate the fatty acid uptake, transport, and metabolism. FABP3 is expressed in a wide variety of tissues with highest concentration in cardiac and skeletal muscle. FABP3 was shown to be release from injured myocaridium and is an early and sensitive marker for injured myocardium.
