Anti-BDNF Antibody

This antibody specifically targets Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), an important signaling molecule that promotes survival and differentiation of neuronal populations in both central and peripheral nervous systems. BDNF participates in axonal growth, dendritic morphology modulation, and serves as a major regulator of synaptic transmission and plasticity in adult synapses. It contributes to various adaptive neuronal responses including long-term potentiation (LTP), long-term depression (LTD), and homeostatic regulation of neuronal excitability.

Validated for immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry applications, this antibody enables detailed visualization of BDNF expression and distribution in neural tissues. The antibody recognizes both the mature BDNF form (14 kDa) and the precursor form (proBDNF, 28-32 kDa).
