Induced proliferation of C6 cells for Human BDNF. Cell proliferation was measured to calculate the ED50, which is as expected less than 2 μg/ml.
Non-reducing (-) and reducing (+) conditions in a 4 - 20% Tris-Glycine gel stained with Coomassie Blue. 1 μg of protein was loaded in each lane. Human BDNF is a non-covalent homodimer and has a predicted Mw of 13.6 kDa under both reducing and non-reducing

Description

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a nerve growth factor that binds two receptors, the low-affinity nerve growth factor receptor (LNGFR) and the tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB), to support neuron growth and survival. BDNF expression in the hippocampus is essential for long-term memory storage and learning. Some protein domains of BDNF are identical with those of NGF and another neurotrophic factor, designated NT-3 (Neurotrophin-3). Human, mouse, rat, and pig BDNF are cross-reactive.

Activity Assay

Human BDNF is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The activity is determined by the proliferation of C6 cells and it is typically less than 2 µg/ml. This corresponds to an expected specific activity of 5.0 x 102 units/mg.
