Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, also known as BDNF, is a secreted protein that, in humans, is encoded by the BDNF gene.
BDNF is a member of the neurotrophin family of growth factors, which are related to the canonical nerve growth factor.
It is mapped to 11p14.1.
BDNF is a prosurvival factor induced by cortical neurons that is necessary for survival of striatal neurons in the brain.
It is expressed within peripheral ganglia and is not restricted to neuronal target fields.
BDNF has been purified and shown to reduce the amount of naturally occurring neuronal cell death in portions of the peripheral nervous system.
Applications:Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:Western Blot: 0.1-0.5ug/ml, the detection limit is ~0.25ng/lane under reducing conditions
Immunohistochemistry (paraffin): 0.5-1ug/ml, boiling the paraffin sections in 10mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0, for 20 mins is required for the staining of formalin/paraffin sections
