Testing Data
Background: PPARG is a nuclear hormone receptor which binds peroxisome proliferators such as hypolipidemic drugs and fatty acids. Like many other nuclear hormone receptors, PPARG forms a heterodimer with the retinoid X receptor (RXR) leading to transcriptional regulation of various genes including acyl-CoA oxidase and cytochrome P450 A6. PPARG has been implicated in adipocyte differentiation and glucose homeostasis and in various diseases such as obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis and cancer.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) subfamily of nuclear receptors. PPARs form heterodimers with retinoid X receptors (RXRs) and these heterodimers regulate transcription of various genes. Three subtypes of PPARs are known: PPAR-alpha, PPAR-delta, and PPAR-gamma. The protein encoded by this gene is PPAR-gamma and is a regulator of adipocyte differentiation. Additionally, PPAR-gamma has been implicated in the pathology of numerous diseases including obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis and cancer. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
PPAR-gamma: a transcription factor, member of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily. Receptor for hypolipidemic drugs and fatty acids. Preferentially expressed in adipocytes as well as in vascular smooth muscle cells and macrophage. Regulator of adipogenesis and lipid metabolism, modulates insulin sensitivity, cell proliferation and inflammation. Phosphorylated and inhibited by MAP kinase. Heterodimerizes with the retinoid X receptor. Interacts with NCOA6 coactivator, leading to a strong increase in transcription of target genes. Two splice-variant isoforms have been described.

Product Notes
The PPARG pparg (Catalog #AAA840301) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The PPARG polyclonal antibody reacts with Human, Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's PPARG can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), ELISA (EIA), ChIP. ChIP: 1 ug/ChIP, Western Blot: 1:2000, ELISA: 1:1000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PPARG pparg for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "PPARG, Polyclonal Antibody" 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
