Specifications
Target Information
Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) acts as a survival factor for various types of neuronal cells and appears to prevent the degeneration of motor axons following axotomy. In rabbits, the CNTF gene encodes this factor. CNTF is among the most researched neurotrophic factors for the neuroprotection of the retina. In the rabbit retina, CNTF protects retinal cells by reducing electroretinogram (ERG) wave amplitude and inhibiting retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) function. In addition, CNTF was able to significantly reduce retinal cell loss and improve retinal structure after intravitreal injection in rabbit eyes.
