Menselijke proBDNF snelle ELISA ELISA

BDNF belongs to the neurotrophin family and regulates the survival and differentiation of neurons during development. The alterations in BDNF expression induced by various kinds of brain insult including stress, ischemia, seizure activity and hypoglycemia, may contribute to some pathologies such as depression, epilepsy, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's disease. FUNCTION: Promotes the survival of neuronal populations that are all located either in the central nervous system or directly connected to it. Major regulator of synaptic transmission and plasticity at adult synapses in many regions of the CNS. The versatility of BDNF is emphasized by its contribution to a range of adaptive neuronal responses including long-term potentiation (LTP), long-term depression (LTD), certain forms of short-term synaptic plasticity, as well as homeostatic regulation of intrinsic neuronal excitability. SUBUNIT: Monomers and homodimers. Binds to NTRK2/TRKB. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted protein. Post Translation Modification (PTM) : The propeptide is N-glycosylated and glycosulfated. PTM: Converted into mature BDNF by plasmin (PLG) (By similarity) . DISEASE: Defects in BDNF are a cause of congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) ; also known as congenital failure of autonomic control or Ondine curse. CCHS is a rare disorder characterized by abnormal control of respiration in the absence of neuromuscular or lung disease, or an identifiable brain stem lesion. A deficiency in autonomic control of respiration results in inadequate or negligible ventilatory and arousal responses to hypercapnia and hypoxemia. CCHS is frequently complicated with neurocristopathies such as Hirschsprung disease that occurs in about 16% of CCHS cases. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the NGF-beta family.

The Biosensis proBDNF Rapid enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) Kit is a sandwich ELISA that allows the specific, fast and reliable quantification of proBDNF in less than 4 hours in cell culture supernatants, cell lysates, serum, citrate-plasma and tissue extracts.

A cross-reactivity of 2% in weight concentration (0.9% in molar concentration) has been observed for mature BDNF assayed at 25 ng/mL (893 pmol/L) in Assay Diluent A. Due to a high degree of sequence homology, this human proBDNF ELISA kit cross-reacts with the mouse and rat form of proBDNF. Other species have not yet been tested, but cross-reactivity with a wide range of mammalian forms of proBDNF is expected. The antibodies do not cross-react with nerve growth factor (NGF), neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) or NT-4/5.
