About FABP4

Target information is kept separate from product-level validation so you can review the biology and the reagent evidence independently.

Biology

Biological function

Fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4; A-FABP/aP2) is a cytoplasmic lipid-binding protein enriched in adipocytes that binds long-chain fatty acids and related hydrophobic ligands and participates in fatty-acid transport and metabolic signalling.

Experimental context

Research context

Fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4/A-FABP) is studied in adipocyte biology, lipid transport, metabolic inflammation, insulin resistance and cardiometabolic research. Use the catalogue filters below to compare ABMIUM FABP4 reagents and confirm product-level suitability before use.
