Resistin (RETN) Active Protein | RETN active protein
Recombinant Human Resistin (RETN)
Gene Names
RETN; ADSF; RSTN; XCP1; FIZZ3; RETN1
Purity
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE
Synonyms
Resistin (RETN); N/A; Recombinant Human Resistin (RETN); FIZZ3; Adipose tissue-specific secretory factor; ADSF; HXCP1; RSTIN; C/EBP-epsilon-regulated myeloid-specific secreted cysteine-rich protein; Cysteine-rich secreted protein A12-alpha-like 2; Cysteine-rich secreted protein FIZZ3; RETN active protein
Host
E Coli
Purity/Purification
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE
Form/Format
Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered PBS solution.
Sequence Length
108
Bioactivity
Determined by its ability to stimulate lipolysis in cultured human adipocytes.
Endotoxin Level
<1.0 EU/ug of recombinant protein as determined by the LAL method.
Reconstitution
A quick spin of the vial followed by reconstitution in distilled water to a concentration not less than 0.1 mg/mL. This solution can then be diluted into other buffers.
Preparation and Storage
The lyophilized protein is stable for at least one year from date of receipt at-70 degree C. Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at 2-8 degree C for one month, or at-20 degree C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Related Product Information for RETN active protein
Resistin was identified by screening for genes that are induced during the differentiation of adipocytes but down-regulated in mature adipocytes. Resistin gene expression is induced during the differentiation of adipocytes. Resistin circulates in mouse serum, and its level is increased markedly in obesity. Adipocytes secrete resistin as a unique signaling molecule that may be the hormone potentially linking obesity to type II diabetes, which is characterized by target-tissue resistance to insulin. TNF-alpha is a negative regulator of Resistin gene expression and inhibits Resistin mRNA expression and protein secretion by 70-90% in 3T3-L1 adipocytes.

Product Notes
The RETN retn (Catalog #AAA214252) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Resistin (RETN), Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
