Application Note:
Neutralization:
To yield one-half maximal inhibition [ND50] of the biological activity of rCNTF (0.15 ng/mL), a concentration of 0.02 - 0.05 μg/mL of this antibody is required.
ELISA:
To detect rCNTF by direct ELISA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration of at least 0.5 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, allows the detection of 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant rCNTF.
Sandwich: To detect Rat CNTF by sandwich ELISA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.5 - 2.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purified antibody, in conjunction with our Biotinylated Anti-Rat CNTF (XP-5114Bt) as a detection antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant Rat CNTF.
Western Blot:
To detect rCNTF by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1 - 0.2 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for recombinant rCNTF is 1.5 - 3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.

Background:
Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) is expressed in glial cells within the central and peripheral nervous systems. CNTF stimulates gene expression, cell survival or differentiation in a variety of neuronal cell types such as sensory, sympathetic, ciliary and motor neurons. CNTF itself lacks a classical signal peptide sequence of a secreted protein, but is thought to convey its cytoprotective effects after release from adult glial cells by some mechanism induced by injury.
