This glycosylated, disulfide-bonded homodimer is a member of the TGF-β superfamily and plays an important role in neuronal survival (2). GDNF and the related GDNF family of ligands (GFLs) neurturin, persephin, and artemin bind to the GDNF family receptor α (GFRα) proteins that signal through the Ret receptor tyrosine kinase (3,4). The effect that GDNF has on degenerating dopamine neurons makes it an important growth factor when studying Parkinson's disease (PD) (5). GDNF has also been identified as a therapeutic target for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), is a suggested biomarker for Alzheimer's Disease (AD), and has been associated with cancer progression (6-9).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nAstrocyte-derived trophic factor; ATF; ATF1; ATF2; GDNF; glial cell derived neurotrophic factor; glial cell line derived neurotrophic factor; Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor; HFB1-GDNF; hGDNF; HSCR3\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M\nSENSITIVITY: Recombinant and Transfected\nMW (kDa): Precursor 28 - Mature 13-16\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800053010601,"sku":"96166T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-96166t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
