Description
General description
Insulin, leptin, and PAI-1 regulate energy balance, glucose metabolism, and adipocyte function. IL-1β, IL-6, TNFα, and MCP-1/CCL2 are key inflammatory markers linked to metabolic dysfunction. Together, these biomarkers offer insight into immune-metabolic interactions in rat models of obesity and insulin resistance.
Application
MILLIPLEX® Qualified assays undergo rigorous assay development, verification, and Quality Control testing to achieve optimal performance. Simultaneously analyze 7 analytes in rat serum or plasma samples.
Analytes Included: IL-1β, IL-6, Insulin, Leptin, MCP-1/CCL2, PAI-1 (total), TNFα
Assay Characteristics: Refer to the assay protocol for details on cross-reactivity, sensitivity, precision, and accuracy.
