Recombinant Human Visfatin
Induced expression of IL-6 from human PBMC cells for Human Visfatin. A significant increase in IL-6 is visible.
Non-reducing (-) and reducing (+) conditions in a 4 - 20% Tris-Glycine gel stained with Coomassie Blue. 1 μg of protein was loaded in each lane. Human Visfatin has a predicted Mw of 52.7 kDa.

Visfatin is an adipokine produced by visceral adipose tissue. Visfatin acts as a pro-inflammatory factor for peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and mimics the effects of insulin on adipocytes, monocytes and hepatocytes.Activity Assay
Human Visfatin is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The activity is determined by the induced expression of IL-6 from Human PBMC cells.AA Sequence
