CNTF was initially identified as a trophic factor for embryonic chick ciliary parasympathetic neurons in culture. Furthermore, the protein is also a potent survival factor for neurons and oligodendrocytes and may be relevant in reducing tissue destruction during inflammatory attacks. In addition, CNTF is useful for treatment of motor neuron disease and it could reduce food intake without causing hunger or stress. Recombinant Mouse CNTF containing 197 amino acids and it shares 82 % and 95 % a.a. sequence identity with human and rat CNTF.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eResearch_area\u003c\/b\u003e:Immunology\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePurity\u003c\/b\u003e:\u0026gt; 95 % by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSource\u003c\/b\u003e:Escherichia coli.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFull product name\u003c\/b\u003e:Recombinant Mouse Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBiological activity\u003c\/b\u003e:Fully biologically active when compared to standard.
