Gene Information
human ... BDNF(627)
Specificity
Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF). Neutralizes BDNF, but not other neurotrophins. By one site ELISA, less than 1% cross-reactivity against mouse NGF, recombinant human NT3 or neurotrophin 4.
The antibody was tested on human and rat derived samples, but based on sequence similarity it is expected to react with mouse and other mammalian species. The peptide sequences of human, rat and mouse BDNF are identical.

Immunogen
Recombinant Human Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF).
Application
Anti-Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor Antibody is an antibody against Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor for use in ELISA, WB, IH.
Immunohistochemistry: 1:200-1:2,000 (see suggested protocol).
Immunoblotting: 1:200-1:2,000 we recommend preparing the BDNF samples for western blot by the method of Semba-Katoh, R et.al (J. Neurochemistry 69(1):34-42, 1997) because BDNF is not easily extracted in standard buffers. Dissected tissues should be homogenized in 10 volumes of 100mM phosphate buffer containing 1mM EDTA, 2M guanidine hydrochloride (pH 7.2), and three protease inhibitors, 10mM N-ethylmaleimide, 0.36mM pepstatin, and 1mM PMSF. Homogenates are then sonicated and centrifuged at 46K x g for 30 minutes at 4°C.
ELISA: 1:200-1:2,000
Inhibition of biological activity in vitro: 1:10-1:50
Use neat for in vivo animal studies.
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Physical form
Sheep serum. Lyophilized, no preservatives. Reconstitute with 100 μL of sterile distilled water. Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material.
Storage and Stability
Maintain lyophilized material at -20 to -70°C for up to 12 months after date of receipt. After reconstitution maintain at -20 to -70°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Glycerol (ACS grade or better) can be added (1:1) for additional stability.

The current gold standard treatment for peripheral nerve injury is nerve grafting but this has disadvantages such as donor site morbidity. New techniques focus on replacing these grafts with nerve conduits enhanced with growth factors and/or various cell types such

Whether BDNF protein and BDNF mRNA expression of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC; cingulated cortex area 1 (Cg1), prelimbic cortex (PrL), and infralimbic cortex (IL)), amygdala, and hippocampus (CA1, CA2, CA3, and dentate gyrus (DG)) was involved in fear of

Retinal ganglion cell degeneration triggered by axonal injury is believed to underlie many ocular diseases, including glaucoma and optic neuritis. In these diseases, retinal ganglion cells are affected unevenly, both spatially and temporally, such that healthy and unhealthy cells coexist
Neural regeneration research, 7(28), 2165-2175 (2012-10-05)
Previous studies have shown that transplanted enteric glia enhance axonal regeneration, reduce tissue damage, and promote functional recovery following spinal cord injury. However, the mechanisms by which enteric glia mediate these beneficial effects are unknown. Neurotrophic factors can promote neuronal
Experimental neurology, 363, 114352-114352 (2023-02-23)
Decreasing neurotrophic support and impaired mitochondrial bioenergetics are key mechanisms for long-term neurodegeneration and cognitive decline after traumatic brain injury (TBI). We hypothesize that preconditioning with lower and higher volumes of physical exercise upregulates the CREB-BDNF axis and bioenergetic capability
