A family of resistin-like molecules (RELMs) has been identified in rodents and humans.
Resistin is a hormone produced by fat cells.
RELMalpha is a secreted protein that has a restricted tissue distribution with highest levels in adipose tissue.
Another family member, RELMbeta, is a secreted protein expressed only in the gastrointestinal tract, particularly the colon, in both mouse and human.
RELMbeta gene expression is highest in proliferative epithelial cells and is markedly increased in tumors, suggesting a role in intestinal proliferation.
Resistin and the RELMs share a cysteine composition and other signature features.
Thus, the RELMs together with resistin comprise a class of tissue-specific signaling molecules.
Applications:Suitable for use in Western Blot.
Other applications have not been tested.
Recommended Dilution:Western Blot: 1:250-1:500Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
