Mature BDNF ELISAKit Wako

The Mature BDNF Kit Wako is designed for the quantitative detection and measurement of mature BDNF in biological fluids such as serum, and plasma. Brain-derived neurotrophicfactor (BDNF) is a member of the NGF family of neurotrophic factors. BDNF is involved in neurogenesis and synaptogenesis and is expected as a biomarker for diseases of the nervous system. In addition, it has been reported to be related to heart disease, diabetes, gout, periodontal disease, stress, and exercise, etc. Therefore, BDNF is the target of research in a wide range of fields. BDNF has a precursor termed proBDNF, which is converted to mature BDNF (mBDNF) through the proteolyticremoval of the N-terminal fragment by specific protease. There are different functions between mBDNFand proBDNF.
