| Reconstitution | It is recommended that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute the lyophilized powder in ddH₂O up to 100 μg/ml. | |
| Storage & Stability | Upon receiving, this product remains stable for up to 6 months at lower than -70°C. Upon reconstitution, the product should be stable for up to 1 week at 4°C or up to 3 months at -20°C. For long term storage it is recommended that a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) be added. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Target Background | Vaspin is a cytokine originally identified in visceral adipose tissue of Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima fatty rats, and the name “Vaspin” is short for visceral adipose tissue-derived serine protease inhibitor. Besides the visceral adipose, Vaspin is also expressed in the skin, hypothalamus, pancreatic islets and stomach, and is shown to exert an anti-inflammatory role by inhibiting several proinflammatory adipokines such as leptin, resistin, and Tumor Necrosis Factor-α. Vaspin also stimulates adiponectin expression and improves insulin sensitivity in mice. Vaspin expression has been shown to decrease with worsening of diabetes and body weight loss. Accordingly, administration of recombinant human Vaspin improved glucose tolerance in diet regulated mice suggesting it as a potential target for obese-related diseases. |
