Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
(Applications: Detecting GDNFSample: Brain Tissue (Hippocampus)Detection: --"We used this kit and the BDNF kit, because we were looking at neurogenesis within the hippocampus. We used the ELISA to complement our immunohistochemistry. It was easy to optimize the kits and the instructions were extremely easy to follow. Additionally, the instructions do not include using samples from tissue homogenates, but we did and the plates came out great. This product was selected after speaking with a representative about it at a conference. I am extremely glad we decided to go with this kit. This is a great kit. The protocol was easy to follow and optimize. We will be using these kits again.")
Background: Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) is a glycosylated, disulfide-bonded homodimer that is a distantly related member of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily.1 GDNF, is a potent neurotrophic factor thatpromotes the survival of dopaminergic neurones in cultures including embryonic neuronal cultures.2 GDNF, inaddition to its potential role in the differentiation and survival of central nervous system neurons, has profound effects on kidney organogenesis and the development of the peripheral nervous system.3 GDNF may have utility inthe treatment of Parkinson's disease, which is marked by progressive degeneration of midbrain dopaminergic neurons.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
GDNF: Neurotrophic factor that enhances survival and morphological differentiation of dopaminergic neurons and increases their high-affinity dopamine uptake. Defects in GDNF may be a cause of Hirschsprung disease type 3 (HSCR3). In association with mutations of RET gene, defects in GDNF may be involved in Hirschsprung disease. This genetic disorder of neural crest development is characterized by the absence of intramural ganglion cells in the hindgut, often resulting in intestinal obstruction. Defects in GDNF are a cause of congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS); also known as congenital failure of autonomic control or Ondine curse. CCHS is a rare disorder characterized by abnormal control of respiration in the absence of neuromuscular or lung disease, or an identifiable brain stem lesion. A deficiency in autonomic control of respiration results in inadequate or negligible ventilatory and arousal responses to hypercapnia and hypoxemia. Belongs to the TGF-beta family. GDNF subfamily. 5 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Mouse GDNF gdnf (Catalog #AAA176519) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA176519 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse GDNF. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "GDNF, ELISA Kit" 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
