- Description
- CNTF, initially identified as crucial for the survival of chick ciliary neurons in lab cultures, plays a significant role in supporting various neural cell types' survival. These include primary sensory neurons, motor neurons, basal forebrain neurons, and type 2 astrocytes. CNTF's importance extends across different species, showcasing its conserved nature and cross-species effectiveness. The synthetic form, Recombinant Human CNTF, comprises a 199 amino acid polypeptide (22.8 kDa), devoid of a hydrophobic N-terminal signal required for secretion.
