Product Overview

Description: Mouse leptin (LEP) ELISA kit (0.156-10 ng/mL) is an ELISA-based in vitro research tool designed specifically for the quantitative detection of LEP in mice samples with a range of 0.156-10 ng/mL and a minimum detectable dose (sensitivity) of <0.05 ng/mL. The kit is highly sensitive and easy to use.

Assay Principle: This double-antibody sandwich ELISA features a microplate pre-coated with a mouse LEP monoclonal antibody and uses a biotin-labeled polyclonal detection antibody. Samples and detection antibodies are added to the wells and washed with PBS or TBS, followed by the addition of avidin-peroxidase conjugates. A TMB substrate is used for visualization, turning blue through peroxidase catalysis and finally yellow under acidic conditions. The resulting color depth is positively correlated with the concentration of the target analyte in the sample.

Background: LEP is a hormone that plays a crucial role in regulating body fat. Secreted by fat cells, it functions as part of a signaling pathway that controls the extent of fat storage in the human body. This protein belongs to the leptin family and possesses dual functions as both a growth factor and a hormone. LEP's primary functions include: regulating food intake, controlling energy expenditure, participating in glucose homeostasis regulation, modulating adipocyte differentiation, and influencing fatty acid metabolism. Obesity research frequently focuses on deciphering the mechanisms of leptin resistance and developing countermeasures, including the development of drugs that enhance brain sensitivity to leptin or the exploration of alternative pathways for regulating appetite and energy balance. Understanding leptin-mediated signaling pathways is central to this research.
