FFAR3 Antibody by FACS in SH-SY5Y cells. Flow cytometry analysis of fixed SH-SY5Y cells using Free fatty acid receptor 3 Antibody shows a clear rightward shift of the antibody-stained population (blue) relative to the rabbit IgG isotype control (green) and unstained blank (red). Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, blocked with normal goat serum, and incubated with 1 ug primary antibody per 1 x 10^6 cells. Fluorescent anti-rabbit secondary antibody was used for detection. The histogram demonstrates FFAR3-associated staining under these fixed-cell assay conditions.
FFAR3 Antibody by WB in four human cell lines. Western blot analysis using Free fatty acid receptor 3 Antibody shows immunoreactivity near 38-40 kDa in K562 (lane 1), SH-SY5Y (lane 2), U251 (lane 3), and HepG2 (lane 4) whole-cell lysates. Thirty ug of reduced protein was loaded per lane on a 12% SDS-PAGE gel. The primary antibody was applied at 0.5 ug/mL overnight at 4oC, followed by HRP-linked secondary antibody detection. Additional bands are visible at higher and lower apparent molecular weights, but their identities are not established by the presented blot. The signal near 38-40 kDa corresponds to the band labeled FFAR3.

Description

FFAR3 Antibody / Free fatty acid receptor 3 Antibody detects FFAR3, also known as GPR41, a G protein-coupled receptor that responds to short-chain fatty acids generated during microbial fermentation of dietary substrates. Propionate, butyrate, and other short-chain fatty acids can act as signaling molecules rather than serving only as metabolic fuels. FFAR3 helps convert information about the availability of these metabolites into cellular responses. The receptor is found in several physiologically relevant cell populations, including certain enteroendocrine and neuronal cells, although its distribution varies with tissue and experimental context.

Upon activation, FFAR3 primarily engages inhibitory G proteins of the Gi/o family, which can reduce adenylyl cyclase activity and alter intracellular cyclic AMP signaling. Downstream effects depend on the cell type and the presence of other receptors and regulatory proteins. FFAR3 is part of a related receptor group that includes FFAR2, but the two receptors differ in ligand preferences and signaling properties. Distinguishing their functions is important when interpreting how microbial metabolites influence host physiology. The Free fatty acid receptor 3 Antibody designation reflects the full protein name associated with the FFAR3 target.

FFAR3 has been implicated in communication among the intestinal microbiota, peripheral nervous system, and metabolic tissues. Proposed roles include modulation of sympathetic activity, enteroendocrine signaling, and aspects of energy homeostasis. Some physiological effects remain context-dependent, and findings from different models are not always identical. Interest in FFAR3 reflects the broader recognition that microbial fermentation products can influence host signaling pathways. NSJ Bioreagents offers the FFAR3 Antibody for this receptor target. An FFAR3 Antibody is relevant to understanding the molecular links between short-chain fatty acid sensing, G protein signaling, and metabolic regulation.

Application Notes

Investigators should determine the optimal dilution of the FFAR3 Antibody / Free fatty acid receptor 3 Antibody empirically for their experimental conditions.

Immunogen

The FFAR3 Antibody was generated using a synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human FFAR3.

Storage

The FFAR3 Antibody is stable for up to one month at 4oC after reconstitution. For longer-term storage, aliquot and store at -20oC for up to six months. Do not repeatedly freeze and thaw.

Alternate Names

FFAR3 antibody, Free fatty acid receptor 3 antibody, GPR41 antibody, G-protein coupled receptor 41 antibody, FFAR3 rabbit polyclonal antibody
