A monoclonal antibody from rat specific for Neurotrophin-3 has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards (Expression system for standard: sf21; Immunogen sequence: Y139-T257) and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection polyclonal antibody from goat specific for Neurotrophin-3 is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the Mouse Neurotrophin-3 amount of sample captured in plate.\u003cbr\u003e\nNeurotrophin-3 (NT-3) is a new member of the nerve growth factor gene family, which plays an important role in the development and maintenance of the vertebrate nervous system. NT-3 and its receptor, called neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor type 3 (Ntrk3; also called TrkC), are expressed early and throughout embryogenesis. NT-3 is one of five neurotrophin growth factors which shape the development of the nervous system by regulating neuronal survival and differentiation. NT-3 may be one of the central nervous system-derived factors that mediate neural crest (NC) cell proliferation in vivo. NT-3 has been mapped to human chromosome 12p and mouse chromosome 6.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions--20°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions--20°C, Storage information--20°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nNeurotrophin 3 also known as NT-3 or neurotrophin-3 is a protein with a molecular mass around 28 kDa. It belongs to the neurotrophin family and acts mechanically by binding to specific tyrosine kinase receptors especially TrkC on target cells. This binding initiates intracellular signaling cascades essential for neuronal development and survival. NT-3 is expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems and is involved in various cellular processes. Expression levels can vary depending upon developmental stages and types of nervous tissue.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nNT-3 has a role in the survival and differentiation of neurons especially sensory ganglia neurons. It supports the development and maintenance of the nervous system by influencing neuron growth and plasticity. While not typically forming a large protein complex NT-3 interacts with its receptor TrkC to transmit critical signals internally. Such interactions can modulate synaptic responses and connectivity ultimately influencing learning and memory formation. NT-3 also interacts with p75NTR another receptor though this interaction is less specific compared to its action on TrkC.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nNT-3 participates in the MAPK\/ERK signaling and PI3K\/AKT pathways. These pathways are fundamental in regulating cell differentiation growth and survival. They also mediate a variety of cellular responses to external stimuli. NT-3's activation of the TrkC receptor triggers these pathways affecting other proteins such as BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) and NGF (nerve growth factor) which are part of the neurotrophin family. The intricate web of interactions highlights NT-3's significance in pathway modulation involved in neurodevelopment and plasticity.\u003cbr\u003e\nNT-3 has implications in neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s disease and Huntington's disease. The protein’s role in supporting neuronal survival points to its potential impact when its signaling is disrupted or deficient. NT-3 exhibits connections with proteins such as TrkC and BDNF which are also related to these neurodegenerative disorders. Dysfunctional NT-3-TrkC signaling could contribute to disease progression by impairing neuronal survival or recovery. Understanding NT-3's role in these contexts can offer insights into therapeutic approaches for such conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843640971433,"sku":"ab213882","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab213882","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
