Avoid freeze / thaw cycles. Recommended dilutions: WB: 1:5,000. IF/ICC and IHC: 1:1,000. Western blot analysis of whole tissue lysates using mouse mAb Immunofluorescent analysis of rat frontal cortex section stained to NF-L, MCA-DA2, dilution 1:5,000 in green: [1] protein standard with mouse mAb to NF-L, MCA-DA2, dilution 1:500 in red, (red), [2] rat brain, [3] rat spinal cord, [4] mouse brain, [5] mouse and costained with chicken pAb to GFAP, CPCA-GFAP, dilution spinal cord. The strong band at about 70 kDa corresponds to NF- 1:5,000 in green. Following transcardial perfusion of rat with 4% References: L protein. paraformaldehyde, brain was post fixed for 24 hours, cut to 45μM, 1. Mersiyanova IV, et al. A new variant and free-floating sections were stained with above antibodies. The of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 is MCA-DA2 antibody labels cell bodies and processes of pyramidal probably the result of a mutation in the neurons, as well as dendrites and axons of other neuronal cells, neurofilament-light gene.

Identification of a tektin-like protein associated with neurofilaments in the Background: Neurofilaments are the 10 nm or intermediate filament proteins found specifically in neurons, developing chick nervous system. J and are composed predominantly of three major proteins called NF-L, NF-M and NF-H. NF-L is the Neurosci Res. 30:105-15 1991. neurofilament light or low molecular weight polypeptide and runs on SDS-PAGE gels at about 68 kDa. 3. Bongarzone ER, et al. Two neuronal Antibodies to NF-L are useful for identifying neuronal cells and their processes in tissue sections and in tissue cell lines expressing the myelin basic culture. NF-L antibody can also be useful in the diagnostics of neurofilament accumulations seen in many protein gene display differences in their neurological diseases, such as Lou Gehrig’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease. Mutations in the protein coding in vitro survival and in their response to region of the human NF-L gene cause some forms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. This antibody has been glia.
