200 kDa neurofilament protein antibody, CMT2CC antibody, Nefh antibody, Neurofilament heavy polypeptide 200kDa antibody, Neurofilament heavy polypeptide antibody, Neurofilament triplet H protein antibody, NF H antibody, NF-H antibody, NFH antibody, NFH_HUMAN antibody
Neurofilaments are the 10nm or intermediate filament proteins found specifically in neurons, and are composed predominantly of three major proteins called NF-L, NF-M and NF-H (1). NF-H is the neurofilament high or heavy molecular weight polypeptide and runs on SDS-PAGE gels at 200-220 kDa, with some variability across species boundaries. Antibodies to NF-H are useful for identifying neuronal cells and their processes in tissue sections and in tissue culture. NF-H antibodies can also be useful to visualize neurofilament accumulations seen in many neurological diseases, such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (Lou Gehrigs disease) (2) and Alzheimers disease (3).
