Nampt Monoclonal Antibody (Clone OMNI 379) Chemische Eigenschaften,Einsatz,Produktion Methoden
Beschreibung
Nampt is a 52 kDa adipokine secreted by adipose tissue that is involved in the biosynthesis of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD
+). Two forms of Nampt exist, an intracellular form (iNampt) and an extracellular form (eNampt). While the function of iNampt as an essential and rate-
limiting NAD
+ biosynthetic enzyme is well established, the physiological role of eNampt is still a matter of debate. Nampt has various functions, including the promotion of vascular smooth muscle cell maturation and inhibition of neutrophil apoptosis. It activates the insulin receptor and has insulin-
mimetic effects, lowering blood glucose and improving insulin sensitivity. The protein is highly expressed in visceral fat and serum levels of the protein correlate with obesity.
