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.

Investigators should determine the optimal dilution of the FFAR3 Antibody / Free fatty acid receptor 3 Antibody empirically for their experimental conditions.
The FFAR3 Antibody was generated using a synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human FFAR3.
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.
