Nerve growth factor plays a central role in the development, maintenance, and survival of neurons in both the peripheral and central nervous systems. As a founding member of the neurotrophin family, NGF regulates neuronal differentiation, axonal growth, and synaptic plasticity, making it an essential target for researchers investigating neurodegenerative diseases, pain signaling pathways, and nervous system development.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated against a synthetic peptide derived from human NGF, offers the consistency and reliability that demanding neuroscience research requires. Because the antibody sequence is defined and produced recombinantly, researchers benefit from lot-to-lot reproducibility that ensures experimental results remain comparable across studies and over time. The rabbit host and IgG isotype provide strong signal amplification while the affinity-chromatography purification delivers a clean reagent suitable for sensitive detection methods.
Validation studies demonstrate robust performance across multiple applications. In western blot analysis, the antibody successfully detects NGF in both human U-87 glioblastoma cells and rat brain tissue, confirming cross-species reactivity that expands experimental design options. The observed band at approximately 39 kDa, higher than the predicted 27 kDa molecular weight, likely reflects post-translational modifications such as glycosylation that are characteristic of secreted growth factors. Immunohistochemistry validation in paraffin-embedded human testis tissue confirms suitability for tissue-based studies, with effective staining achieved at 1:100 dilution using standard antigen retrieval protocols.
Whether investigating NGF expression in neural cell models, examining neurotrophin distribution in tissue sections, or quantifying protein levels via ELISA, this antibody provides the flexibility and dependability needed for rigorous neuroscience research.
