BLBP (Brain lipid-binding protein) belongs to a family of small, highly conserved, cytoplasmic proteins that bind long-chain fatty acids and other hydrophobic ligands. BLBPs play essential roles in fatty acid uptake, transport and metabolism. BLBP can be used as a molecular marker for radial glia (a major neural progenitor cell type and a scaffolding supporting neuronal migration) in the developing central nervous system. Radial glia play an essential role in the generation of the cerebral cortex through their function as neuronal precursors and as neuronal migration guides.
