Neurotrophin 4 (NTF4) (AA 81-210) (Active) protein
Description
NT-4 is part of the family of neurotrophic factors, neurotrophins, that are in charge for the survival and differentiation of mammalian neurons. NT-4 expression is dominant and less influenced by environmental signals. NT-4 deficient mice shows slight cellular deficits and develop normally to adulthood. NT-4 is a target-derived survival factor for peripheral sensory sympathetic neurons.NT-4 is involved in the proliferation and differentiation of periodontal ligament cells Synonyms: NT4, NT5, NTF5, NT-4/5, NTF4, Neurotrophin-4, Neutrophic factor 4, Neurotrophin-5, NT-5
