The ED50 is <30 ng/mL as measured by its ability to induce alkaline phosphatase production by TF-1 cells. Appearance
Lyophilized powder. Formulation
Lyophilized after extensive dialysis against PBS Endotoxin Level
<0.2 EU/μg, determined by LAL method. Reconstitution
Reconstitute the lyophilized recombinant Mouse CNTF (rMuCNTF) to 100 μg/mL using ddH2O. Storage & Stability
Lyophilized recombinant Mouse CNTF (rMuCNTF) is stored at -20°C. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer. It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage. Shipping
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere. Background
Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor (CNTF) is an extracellular signaling protein in the neuroretinal and the interphotoreceptor matrix, which is associated with the membranes of the RPE, Muller and photoreceptor cells[1]. CNTF has neuroprotective effects on a variety of central and also peripheral nervous system neurons. Because it promotes differentiation and maturation of oligodendrocyte precursor cells to oligodendrocytes under in vitro conditions and thus improves remyelination. Importantly, it also increases the survival of mature oligodendrocytes[2]. |
