General description
Neurotrophins (NT) are growth factors that are essential for the development and maintenance of the nervous system. One of the receptors that mediate the effects of NTs is the Nerve Growth Factor Receptor/TNFRSF16 (p75NGFR, p75NTR). Nerve growth factor (NGF) binds to either to NGF receptor (NGFR) or the Trk receptor and can elicit biological responses through each of the receptors independently. NGFR mediates the effects of NGF that are important in the survival and differentiation of neurons and neural crest-derived cells during embryonic and early postnatal development and maintenance of peripheral neurons. Signaling of NGF through NGFR is also implicated in inflammation and allergic reactions. Expression of NGFR has been associated with favourable prognosis and survival in breast and pancreatic cancers
Anti-Nerve Growth Factor Receptor/TNFRSF16 recognizes mouse NGF R.
Immunogen
purified, NSO cell-derived recombinant mouse nerve growth factor receptor extracellular domain.
Application
Anti-Nerve Growth Factor Receptor/TNFRSF16 antibody may be used for immunoblotting at a working concentration of 2 μg/ml. For immunohistochemistry a working concentration of 5-15 μg/ml is recommended.
Target description
Anti-Nerve Growth Factor Receptor/TNFRSF16 recognizes mouse NGF R. Neurotrophic factors control the survival, differentiation and maintenance of neurons in the peripheral and central nervous systems, and of other neural crest-derived cell types.
Physical form
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline containing carbohydrates.
