Mouse FABP5 (Fatty Acid Binding Protein 5, Epidermal) CLIA Kit (MOES00254)

Mouse models of cutaneous inflammation, sebaceous gland biology, obesity, and lipid-driven tumor progression all depend on accurate quantification of fatty acid binding protein 5, epidermal (E-FABP, FABP5). The Assay Genie Mouse FABP5 CLIA Kit provides chemiluminescence-based immunoassay detection of this intracellular lipid chaperone, using luminescent substrate readout rather than absorbance to widen the dynamic range and sharpen low-end resolution in mouse research samples.

FABP5 shuttles long-chain fatty acids and coordinates downstream signaling in keratinocytes, sebocytes, adipocytes, and macrophages, so the kit is useful for tracking biomarker changes in studies of epidermal barrier function, lipid metabolism, immune cell polarization, and tumor microenvironment biology, including hormone-responsive breast cancer research. Built on a 96-assay microplate format, the kit supplies pre-coated plate strips, lyophilized standards in vials, biotinylated detection antibody, and streptavidin-HRP conjugate, allowing researchers to assemble a standard curve and quantify FABP5 in replicate wells within a single run.

Recommended applications include profiling FABP5 in serum, cell lysates, and tissue homogenates from mouse models of psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, metabolic syndrome, and cancer, where it can serve as either a target or a pharmacodynamic readout. Reconstituted standards and detection antibody should be kept refrigerated between uses, and the plate pouch resealed with desiccant to protect unused strips from moisture across subsequent runs.
