The NAPEPLD Polyclonal Antibody (PAC037130) is a valuable tool for researchers studying NAPEPLD, an enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of N-acylethanolamines, lipid signaling molecules with various physiological functions. The antibody, produced in rabbits, exhibits high specificity and sensitivity for detecting NAPEPLD in human samples and is validated for use in Western blot applications. By binding to the NAPEPLD protein, this antibody enables precise detection and analysis in a variety of cell types, making it an essential component for studies in lipid signaling, metabolism, and related pathways.
NAPEPLD is known for its role in the endocannabinoid system, where N-acylethanolamines act as signaling molecules that regulate various physiological processes such as pain sensation, appetite, and inflammation. Research on NAPEPLD's activity and regulation is crucial for understanding its potential implications in diseases like obesity, chronic pain, and neurological disorders. By targeting NAPEPLD, researchers can gain valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying these conditions and explore novel therapeutic strategies targeting the endocannabinoid system.

NCBI Summary:
NAPEPLD is a phospholipase D type enzyme that catalyzes the release of N-acylethanolamine (NAE) from N-acyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (NAPE) in the second step of the biosynthesis of N-acylethanolamine (Okamoto et al., 2004 [PubMed 14634025]).[supplied by OMIM, Oct 2008]
