Human AgRP PharmaGenie ELISA Kit (SBRS0237)

This Assay Genie immunoassay kit quantifies endogenous human Agouti-related peptide (AgRP), an orexigenic neuropeptide synthesized in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus that promotes feeding behavior through antagonism of melanocortin-3 and melanocortin-4 receptors. Researchers in metabolic disease, neuroscience, and endocrinology apply this 96-assay ELISA to measure AgRP concentrations in cell culture supernatant, plasma specimens, and serum specimens drawn from clinical cohorts or in vivo animal models. The kit supports investigations into obesity, anorexia, cachexia, and hypothalamic control of energy homeostasis, where circulating AgRP levels serve as functional readouts of melanocortin pathway activity. By enabling peptide quantification in peripheral circulation and in vitro experimental systems, the assay facilitates translational research on appetite regulation, body weight control, and related G-protein-coupled receptor pharmacology targets.
