Product Science Overview
Fatty Acid Binding Proteins (FABPs) are a family of intracellular lipid chaperones that play a crucial role in the transport and metabolism of fatty acids. Among the nine identified members of the FABP family, Fatty Acid Binding Protein-3 (FABP3) is of particular interest due to its significant role in various physiological and pathological processes .
FABP3, also known as Heart-type FABP (H-FABP) or Muscle-type FABP (M-FABP), is predominantly expressed in cardiac and skeletal muscles. It is involved in the intracellular transport of long-chain fatty acids and other hydrophobic ligands, facilitating their delivery to sites of lipid metabolism . FABP3 has been implicated in several critical functions, including lipid signaling, storage, and oxidation .
FABP3 has garnered attention as a potential biomarker for various cardiovascular diseases. Elevated levels of FABP3 have been associated with myocardial infarction, ischemic heart injury, and other cardiac conditions . Research has shown that FABP3 contributes to cardiac myocyte apoptosis and remodeling after myocardial infarction, highlighting its role in the pathophysiology of heart diseases .
The development of mouse anti-human FABP3 antibodies has been instrumental in advancing research on FABP3. These antibodies are designed to specifically bind to human FABP3, allowing researchers to study its expression, function, and role in various diseases. The use of mouse anti-human FABP3 antibodies has facilitated numerous studies, providing insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying FABP3-related pathologies .
Mouse anti-human FABP3 antibodies have been widely used in various research applications, including:
- Western Blotting: To detect and quantify FABP3 expression in tissue samples.
- Immunohistochemistry: To visualize the localization of FABP3 in tissues.
- Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA): To measure FABP3 levels in biological fluids.
- Flow Cytometry: To analyze FABP3 expression in cell populations.
These applications have significantly contributed to our understanding of FABP3’s role in health and disease .
