Product details
Rabbit Leptin ELISA Kit (ab273241) is an in-vitro enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of Rabbit Leptin in serum (Rabbit Leptin concentration is low in normal serum and plasma samples, and may not be detectable in this assay), plasma and cell culture supernatants.
This assay employs an antibody specific for Rabbit Leptin coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and Leptin present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed, and biotinylated anti-Rabbit Leptin antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of Leptin bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.

Biological function summary
Leptin regulates food intake and energy expenditure by binding to its receptors in the hypothalamus. It is an important part of the feedback loop to manage body weight and appetite. Leptin is not part of a larger protein complex and acts directly on its target tissues. By signal transduction pathways it influences cellular processes such as metabolism and even impacts fertility and immune responses.
Pathways
Leptin is involved in the neuroendocrine signaling pathway and the MAPK/ERK pathway. In the neuroendocrine system leptin interacts with proteins like proopiomelanocortin (POMC) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) to manage appetite and energy use. Additionally it activates the JAK/STAT pathway when binding to its receptor which influences gene expression involved in metabolism and inflammation.
