Product Details anti-GDNF Antibody

Specificity: This antibody is Specific for Human Glial Derived Neurotrophic Factor (GDNF).

Purification: Affinity chromatography.

Immunogen: Highly pure (>98%) recombinant hGDNF.

Application Details

Application Notes: Neutralization. ELISA: (Indirect): To detect hGDNF by indirect ELISA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) aconcentration of 0.5-2.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purifiedantibody, in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents, allows the detection of atleast 0.2-0.4 ng/well of recombinant hGDNF. (Sandwich): To detect hGDNF by sandwich ELISA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) aconcentration of 0.5-2.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This antigen affinity purifiedantibody, in conjunction with Biotinylated Anti-Human GDNF (PP1010B) as a detectionantibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2-0.4 ng/well of recombinant hGDNF. Western Blot: To detect hGDNF by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at aconcentration of 0.1-0.2 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagentsthe detection limit for recombinant hGDNF is 1.5-3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing ornon-reducing conditions.
Other applications not tested.
Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Target Details for GDNF

Target: GDNF (Glial Cell Line Derived Neurotrophic Factor (GDNF))

Alternative Name: GDNF

Background: Glial cell line derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a highly conserved neurotrophic factor that is a distant member of the TGF beta superfamily. The GDNF gene product is processed to a disulphide-linked homodimer, which is a ligand for the RET protooncogene. GDNF protects and repairs dopamine-containing neurons, which degenerate in Parkinson's disease, and motor neurons, which die in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The use of GDNF in the treatment of Parkinson's disease has shown promise in the clinic. Treatment of spinal cord injuries with GDNF has also produced neurological improvement.Synonyms: ATF, Astrocyte-derived trophic factor, Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor
