Description
ACAT2 Monoclonal Antibody [PAT55D5AT] (CPAB0195)
The ACAT2 Polyclonal Antibody (CPAB0195) is a vital tool for researchers studying ACAT2, an enzyme involved in cholesterol metabolism and lipid droplet formation. This antibody, generated in rabbits, exhibits strong reactivity with human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot applications, allowing for the detection and analysis of ACAT2 protein expression in various cell types.ACAT2 is a key player in lipid metabolism, particularly in the liver and intestines, where it is involved in the biosynthesis of cholesterol esters. Dysregulation of ACAT2 activity has been linked to a variety of metabolic disorders, including atherosclerosis and fatty liver disease, making it a promising target for therapeutic interventions aimed at modulating lipid homeostasis.
By utilizing the ACAT2 Polyclonal Antibody, researchers can gain valuable insights into the function and regulation of ACAT2 in normal and disease states, paving the way for the development of novel treatments for lipid-related disorders. Its versatility and specificity make it an essential tool for studies in metabolic diseases and lipid biology.
