Product details

Human Liver-FABP ELISA Kit (ab218261) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Liver-FABP protein in cell culture supernatant, cit plasma, edta plasma, hep plasma, serum, and urine. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Human Liver-FABP with 9.4 pg/ml sensitivity.

SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:

- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips

A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Liver-FABP is a 14 kDa member of the FABP family. Liver-FABP binds and transports cholesterol, free fatty acids and their coenzyme A derivatives, bilirubin, and some other small molecules. A variety of cells express Liver-FABP, including hepatocytes, simple columnar epithelium of the small intestine, and proximal tubular epithelium of the kidney.

Liver fatty acid binding protein (liver FABP) also known as L-FABP or FABP1 is a small protein with a mass of approximately 14 kilodaltons. It functions mainly in the liver where it binds free fatty acids and other lipophilic substances facilitating their transport within cells. This protein is highly expressed in hepatocytes and also found in the small intestine and kidneys. Its role in binding fatty acids positions it as an important mediator in lipid metabolism making it of interest in a variety of metabolic studies.
Biological function summary

Liver FABP is essential for maintaining lipid homeostasis within cells. It is not part of a larger complex but acts by itself to regulate the intracellular concentration of lipids and protect cells from lipotoxicity. By sequestering fatty acids it prevents these molecules from disrupting cellular membranes or signaling pathways. Liver FABP also participates in the uptake transport and metabolic conversion of fatty acids and their metabolites influencing energy homeostasis and other vital processes.

Pathways

Liver FABP plays a significant role in the fatty acid metabolism and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signaling pathways. It acts by modulating the availability of lipid ligands necessary for PPAR activation linking it functionally to these nuclear receptors that control gene expression involved in lipid and glucose metabolism. Liver FABP's association with proteins like FABP2 and FABP4 within these pathways provides insight into its broader metabolic network highlighting its interactions in fatty acid transport and metabolism.

Liver FABP shows a strong connection to metabolic conditions particularly non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and type 2 diabetes. Its dysregulation is often observed in these disorders which include altered lipid profiles and insulin resistance. Liver FABP is also linked to certain forms of cancer with aberrant expression levels found in some tumor types. The interactions of liver FABP with proteins such as FABP5 in these diseases suggest a potential role in the pathogenesis of metabolic disorders and tumor development making it a candidate for further research and therapeutic targeting.
