NeuroMab™ Rat Anti-68kDa Neurofilament / NF-L Monoclonal Antibody (CBP2373)

Product Overview

Description

Neurofilaments (NF) are type IV intermediate filament heteropolymers composed of light, medium, and heavy chains. Detection of NF, and the subunits of NF, may serve as a biomarker for axonal degeneration. The degree of axonal degeneration is related to the amount of NF detected in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and the blood. Neurofilament light (NF-L) levels are elevated in Alzheimer's Disease.
