Interpolated concentrations of native Neurofilament Heavy Polypeptide in mouse brain tissue extract based on a 12.5 μg/mL extract load.

The concentrations of Neurofilament Heavy Polypeptide were measured in duplicate and interpolated from the Neurofilament Heavy Polypeptide standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean Neurofilament Heavy Polypeptide concentration was determined to be 5491.67 pg/mL in brain extract.

Product details

Mouse Neurofilament H ELISA kit (ab272479) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of Mouse Neurofilament H protein in tissue culture extract. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Mouse Neurofilament H with 57.12 pg/mL sensitivity.

SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:

-Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less

-High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies

-Fully validated in biological samples

-96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips

A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Neurofilament Heavy Polypeptide (also known as Neurofilament H or NEFH), together with Neurofilament L and M are three intermediate filament proteins of neurofilaments. Neurofilament H is involved in the maintenance of neuronal caliber and may play a role in intracellular transport. NEFH is used as a neuronal damage biomarker and mutations to the gene have been associated with susceptibility to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The mouse NEFH amino acid sequence is 94.4% and 96.9% homologous with the human and rat NEFH sequence, respectively.

Neurofilament heavy polypeptide often referred to as NF-H or neurofilament heavy chain plays an important role in the structural integrity of neurons. This protein is a critical component of the cytoskeleton in neurons consisting of an approximate molecular mass of 200 kDa. It is predominantly expressed in the neuronal axons where it contributes to the assembly and stability of neurofilament structures. NF-H is essential for maintaining axonal diameter and for proper conduction of electrical impulses along nerve fibers.
Biological function summary

This polypeptide participates in the formation of neurofilament a complex structure that includes other neurofilament proteins like the neurofilament light (NF-L) and neurofilament medium (NF-M). These proteins form a stable scaffold within the axon aiding in neuronal growth and repair. The phosphorylation of NF-H modulates its interactions within the neurofilament network influencing axonal transport processes and dynamics which are vital for neuron function and survival.

Pathways

Neurofilament heavy polypeptide is integral to the axonal transport pathway important in conveying molecules between the neuronal cell body and the synaptic terminals. Through its interactions with microtubules and motor proteins NF-H facilitates the movement of organelles and neurotransmitters. It has significant associations with proteins involved in the ubiquitin-proteasome system reflecting its role in maintaining neuronal homeostasis and proteostasis essential in neuronal development and function.

Neurofilament heavy polypeptide serves as an important biomarker for neurodegenerative disorders such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Alzheimer's disease. NF-H especially in phosphorylated form accumulates in conditions of axonal injury or degeneration. It often interacts with tau protein in Alzheimer's pathology forming neurofibrillary tangles. Elevated levels of NF-H in cerebrospinal fluid or blood can indicate neuronal damage offering insights into disease progression and potential targets for therapeutic intervention.

Product protocols

Target data

Neurofilaments usually contain three intermediate filament proteins : NEFL, NEFM, and NEFH which are involved in the maintenance of neuronal caliber. NEFH has an important function in mature axons that is not subserved by the two smaller NF proteins. May additionally cooperate with the neuronal intermediate filament proteins PRPH and INA to form neuronal filamentous networks (PubMed : 22723690).
