GPR40/FFAR1 (extracellular) Antibody (AFR-011-200UL) in IHC
Expression of GPR40/FFAR1 in rat brain - Immunohistochemical staining of rat brain sections using Anti-GPR40/FFAR1 (extracellular) Antibody (#AFR-011). A. GPR40 immunoreactivity (green) in the cerebellum appears in the molecular layer (MOL) and in Purkinje cells (arrows). Nuclei are demonstrated using DAPI as the counterstain (blue).

Product Specific Information
Reconstitution: 25 µL, 50 µL or 0.2 mL double distilled water (DDW), depending on the sample size. The antibody ships as a lyophilized powder at room temperature. Upon arrival, it should be stored at -20C. The reconstituted solution can be stored at 4C for up to 1 week. For longer periods, small aliquots should be stored at -20C. Avoid multiple freezing and thawing. Centrifuge all antibody preparations before use (10000 x g 5 min).
Target Information
This gene encodes a member of the GP40 family of G protein-coupled receptors that are clustered together on chromosome 19. The encoded protein is a receptor for medium and long chain free fatty acids and may be involved in the metabolic regulation of insulin secretion. Polymorphisms in this gene may be associated with type 2 diabetes.
