- CNTF in Rat Spinal Cord. CNTF was detected in perfusion fixed frozen sections of rat spinal cord using Goat Anti-Rat CNTF Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AB-557-NA) at 15 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific labeling was localized to the cytoplasm of glial cells in the white matter. View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Frozen Tissue Sections.

- Neuron Survival in Response to CNTF and Neutralization by Rat CNTF Antibody. Recombinant Rat CNTF (Catalog # 557-NT) supports the survival of dorsal root ganglion neurons from E10 chick embryos in a dose-dependent manner (orange line), as measured by MTT staining. Neuron survival elicited by Recombinant Rat CNTF (1 ng/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Goat Anti-Rat CNTF Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AB-557-NA). The ND50 is typically 7-15 µg/mL.
