Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Glial Derived Neurotrophic Factor in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. | ||
Stability | Lyophilized Glial-derived Neurotrophic Factor although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C . Upon reconstitution GDNF should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C .For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. | ||
Biological Activity | Recombinant rat GDNF has full biological activity when compared to standards. The ED50, determined by a cell proliferation assay using rat C6 cells, is less than 0.2ng/ml corresponding to a specific activity of more than 5,000,000IU/mg. | ||
Formulation | GDNF was lyophilized from a sterile solution containing 1xPBS, pH 7.4. |
GDNF promotes the survival and differentiation of neurons in culture, and is able to prevent apoptosis of motor neurons induced by axotomy. The encoded protein is processed to a mature secreted form that exists as a homodimer. The mature form of the protein is a ligand for the product of the RET (rearranged during transfection) protooncogene. In addition to the transcript encoding GDNF, two additional alternative transcripts encoding distinct proteins, referred to as astrocyte-derived trophic factors, have also been described. Mutations in this gene may be associated with Hirschsprung disease.GDNF enhances survival and morphological differentiation of neurons and increases their high-affinity uptake.
