NF-M Antibody recognizes neurofilament medium chain, an intermediate filament protein encoded by the NEFM gene that forms a major structural component of the neuronal cytoskeleton. Neurofilament medium chain assembles with neurofilament light and neurofilament heavy chains to generate the neurofilament network that provides mechanical strength and maintains axonal diameter throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems. These filaments are essential for preserving neuronal architecture and supporting efficient axonal transport. Because of its abundant and neuron-specific expression, NF-M Antibody is widely used to identify neurons, evaluate axonal integrity, and investigate nervous system development and disease.
Neurofilament medium chain undergoes extensive post-translational modification, including phosphorylation, which influences filament assembly, stability, and interactions with other cytoskeletal proteins. Proper regulation of neurofilament organization is required for normal axonal growth, intracellular transport, and maintenance of long neuronal processes. Disruption of neurofilament dynamics has been associated with axonal injury, neurodegeneration, traumatic brain injury, and disorders affecting both the central and peripheral nervous systems. As a result, NF-M Antibody serves as a valuable research tool for studies examining neuronal morphology, axonal remodeling, cytoskeletal organization, and mechanisms of neuronal degeneration.
Changes in neurofilament expression and distribution have been documented in numerous neurological diseases, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and various peripheral neuropathies. Neurofilament proteins are also widely studied as biomarkers of neuronal injury because their release accompanies axonal damage. In addition, neurofilament medium chain expression is routinely evaluated in neuroscience research, developmental neurobiology, neuropathology, and studies of neural regeneration. A well-characterized Neurofilament Medium Chain Antibody supports applications including Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, and other protein expression analyses that investigate neuronal identity, axonal structure, and cytoskeletal integrity.
NSJ Bioreagents offers NF-M Antibody, clone AAGI-14, a recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody developed to provide consistent, specific detection of neurofilament medium chain in research applications. This Neurofilament Medium Chain Antibody is well suited for studies of neuronal development, axonal biology, neurodegenerative disease, nervous system injury, and intermediate filament organization.
