14.3.3 protein eta or 14.3.3  binds to a large number of partners, usually by recognition of a phosphoserine or phosphothreonine motif. Binding generally results in the modulation of the activity of the binding partner (Ref SwissProt). 14.3.3 protein eta is widely expressed as both homodimers and heterodimers and are concentrated in the nervous system. High concentrations of 14.3.3 protein eta have been linked to Creutzfeld Jacob Disease, Parkinson's Disease and early-onset schizopherenia.

BDNF belongs to the neurotrophin family and promotes the survival of neuronal populations that are all located either in the central nervous system or directly connected to it. It is a major regulator of synaptic transmission and plasticity at adult synapses in many regions of the CNS. The versatility of BDNF is emphasized by its contribution to a range of adaptive neuronal responses including long-term potentiation (LTP), long-term depression (LTD), certain forms of short-term synaptic plasticity, as well as homeostatic regulation of intrinsic neuronal excitability. The alterations in BDNF expression induced by various kinds of brain insult including stress, ischemia, seizure activity and hypoglycemia, may contribute to some pathologies such as depression, epilepsy, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's disease. Microglia release BDNF that may contribute to neuroinflammation and neuropathic pain. SUBUNIT: Monomers and homodimers. Binds to NTRK2/TRKB. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted protein. POst translation modification: Converted into mature BDNF by plasmin (PLG). SIMILARITY: Belongs to the NGF-beta family.

The hormone Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is produced by cardiomyocites and is secreted into the bloodstream. ANP acts on convoluted tubules in kidney reducing sodium absorption which results in reducing the blood pressure.

NT3 is a member of the neurotrophin family, that controls survival and differentiation of visceral and proprioceptive sensory neurons. NT3 is closely related to both NGF and BDNF. It may be involved in the maintenance of the adult nervous system, and may affect development of neurons in the embryo when it is expressed in human placenta. NT3-deficient mice generated by gene targeting display sevvere movement defects of the limbs. The mature peptide of this protein is identical in all mammals examined including human, pig, rat and mouse. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted protein. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Brain and peripheral tissues. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the NGF-beta family.

A proprietary preparation of human amyloid beta peptide (amino acids 1-42) that was initially monomerized by HFIP-treatment and then allowed to form oligomers by the procedure described in Youmans KL et al., 2012, followed by lyophilisation using Biosensis’ proprietary stabilization procedures.

The resulting oligomeric mixture has been specially designed to allow the formation of stable, oligomeric Aβ1-42 peptide, multimeric complexes or oligomers. The material is intended to be used as a stable and consistent standard or positive control for oligomeric ELISA assays, as well as other research applications. This product is supplied as 2 x 500 ng vials, each containing lyophilized Aβ oligomers. Note that the amount of provided oligomeric protein is based on the amount of monomeric Aβ used to form these oligomers. The precise formation, size and number of oligomers cannot be quantified by any known method.

Presenilin-1 (PSEN1) is a multi-pass membrane protein and component of the gamma-secretase complex. PSEN1 is thought to play a role in intracellular signaling and gene expression or in linking chromatin to the nuclear membrane. It may also play a role in hematopoiesis. Defects in PSEN1 are a cause of Alzheimer disease type 3 (AD3), a familial early-onset form of Alzheimer disease (Ref:SWISS-Prot).

The Biosensis NGFR/p75ECD Rapid™ enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit is a sandwich ELISA that allows the quantification of the extracellular domain (ECD) of mouse p75 neurotrophin receptor in less than 4 hours in cell culture supernatants and urine only if used as directed.

The Biosensis Mouse and Rat proNGF Rapid enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) Kit is a sandwich ELISA that allows the quantification of rodent full-length proNGF protein in less than 4 hours in cell culture supernatants, cell lysates and tissue homogenates only if used as directed. This ELISA Kit has also successfully been used on mouse urine samples (Ryu JC et al., 2018). Please refer to the kit protocol for specific use instructions for each substrate application.

This ELISA kit contains a recombinant mouse proNGF standard expressed in E.coli and consists of a pre-coated anti-proNGF capture antibody, a biotinylated anti-proNGF detection antibody and horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated streptavidin. The addition of a substrate (3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine, TMB) yields a colored reaction product which is directly proportional to the concentration of proNGF present in samples and protein standards. A proNGF positive control (QC sample) is provided to assure consistent assay performance. This ELISA kit detects rat proNGF due to high degree of homology (96%) with mouse proNGF based on amino acid sequence, and the ability of this kit in detecting proNGF in rat PC12 cell lysates and rat brain tissue homogenate. In the absence of a true rat proNGF standard, results may be expressed as 'mouse proNGF equivalents'. This ELISA kit shows only 20% reactivity with the human form of proNGF and is therefore not suitable to quantify human proNGF. No cross-reactivity was observed with mature mouse NGF and full-length proBDNF when tested in assay buffer.

The antibodies used in this ELISA kit bind epitopes within the pro-domain (capture) and mature domain (detection) of the protein, thus this ELISA assay does not detect the pro-domain peptide. This kit has not been tested for other applications. Sufficient amount of proNGF standard is supplied to allow for spike- and recovery experiments in order to validate this ELISA assay for other sample matrices if required.
