CNTF is a survival promoting factor for different types of neurons in vitro and in vivo. The essential structural features for the biological function of human CNTF were investigated by Thier, M. et al. They showed that deletion of 14 N-terminal and 18 C-terminal amino acids significantly increased bioactivity compared to wild-type CNTF. FUNCTION: CNTF is a survival factor for various neuronal cell types. Seems to prevent the degeneration of motor axons after axotomy. SUBUNIT: Homodimer. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Nervous system. PHARMACEUTICAL: CNTF is being tested under the name Axokine by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals for treatment of human motor neuron diseases, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). As it induces substantial weight loss, preferentially of fat as opposed to lean body mass, it is being used for obesity treatment. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the CNTF family.

Anti-Fas antibody [EPR24898-74] is a Rabbit Monoclonal antibody that is used in Fas IHC-Fr, IHC-P, IP, Western Blot. Suitable for Mouse samples. FAS, also known as CD95 or APO-1, is a cell surface receptor that plays a significant role in regulating apoptosis (programmed cell death). FAS is crucial for inducing apoptosis in cancer cells. When FAS binds to its ligand (FASL), it triggers a cascade leading to cell death, which is essential for eliminating cancer cells.FAS was identified as an independent prognostic marker for recurrence free survival in breast cancer, with large variation in expression by receptor subtypes. Interestingly, the prognostic effect of CD8+ TILs in ER-negative disease was only valid for tumors with a high FAS expression.FAS expression might therefore act as a predictive factor for new emerging therapies.Researchers are exploring ways to enhance FAS signaling to prevent cancer relapse and improve the durability of immunotherapy responses.

D-Pantothenic acid is an essential vitamin (except in horses, ruminants). Pantothenic acid is involved in a number of biological reactions including: A precursor in the biosynthesis of coenzyme A, production of energy, catabolism of fatty acids and amino acids, synthesis of fatty acids, phospholipids, sphingolipids, cholesterol and steroid hormones, synthesis of heme and the neurotransmitter acetylcholine and involved in regulation of gene expression and in signal transduction.
