fgf 21

Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a peptide hormone that is synthesized by several organs and regulates energy homeostasis. Excitement surrounding this relatively recently identified hormone is based on the documented metabolic beneficial effects of FGF21, which include weight loss and improved glycemia. FGF-21 Protein, Human, Recombinant (mFc & Avi), Biotinylated is expressed in HEK293 mammalian cells with N-mFc-Avi tag. The predicted molecular weight is 46.9 kDa and the accession number is Q9NSA1.

Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 (FGF21) is a growth factor that belongs to the FGF family. FGF family proteins play a central role during prenatal development and postnatal growth and regeneration of mamy tissues, by promoting cellular proliferation and differentiation. FGF21 is a potent activator of glucose uptake on adipocytes, protects animal from diet-induced obesity when overexpression in transgenic mice, and lower blood glucose and triglyceride levels when therapeutically adiministered to diabetic redents. FGF21 is produced by hepatocytes in reponse to free fatty acid stimulation of a PPARa/RXR dimeric complex. This situation occurs clinically during starvation, or following the ingestionof a highly-fat/low-carbohydrate diet. Upon FGF21 secretion, white adipose tissue is induced to release free fatty acids from triglyceride stores. Once free fatty acid reach hepatocytes, they are oxidized and reduced to acetyl-CoA. The acetyl-CoA is recombined into 4-carbon ketone bodies, release, and transported to peripheral tissue for TCA processing and energy generation.

Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor-Like 1 (FGFRL1) is a single-pass type I membrane protein that belongs to the FGF receptor family. The mature human FGFRL1 consists of a 354 amino acid extracellular domain (ECD) with 3 Ig-like C2-type domains, a 21 amino acid transmembrane segment, and a 134 amino acid cytoplasmic domain. FGFR1 expressed in various tissues, preferentially in cartilaginous tissues and pancreas. It highly expressed in the liver, kidney, heart, brain and skeletal muscle, weakly expressed in the lung, small intestine and spleen. FGFRL1 has a negative effect on cell proliferation.
