Activity Data
(Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a neurotrophic factor and neuropeptide primarily involved in the regulation of growth, maintenance, proliferation, and survival of certain target neurons. As reported, when the pheochromocytoma cell line PC12 is exposed to nerve growth factor (NGF), the cells respond over a period of a week by ceasing cell division and extending neurites (Greene and Tischler, 1976). The cells were grown in Ham's F12K containing 5% fetal calf serum and 10% horse serum on polylysine or collagen coated plates. When cells reached log phase growth , fresh medium was added together with 10ng/mL of NGF, then cells were observed by inverted microscope everyday.Cell division ceasing and differentiation of PC12 cells after incubation with NGF (10ng/mL) for 6 days was shown in Figure1.Control group which received no NGF displayed no neurite outgrowth and cells multiply rapidly.)

Active Nerve Growth Factor (NGF)
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.

NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family of proteins. These proteins are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis and metastasis. Proteolysis at different sites on this protein results in multiple active forms of the enzyme with distinct N-termini. This protein functions in the degradation of type I, II and III collagens. The gene is part of a cluster of MMP genes which localize to chromosome 11q22.3. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015]

Product Notes
The NGF mmp8 (Catalog #AAA2086071) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Cell culture, Activity Assays. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the NGF mmp8 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
