Rapid isolation of untouched neurons

neuroCell_CMY_N_I_L_01_b

Using our Neuron Isolation Kit, you can now rapidly isolate viable and pure neurons from both neonatal and adult mouse brain by depletion of non-neuronal cells. The high purity of the isolated neurons relies on the specificity of the non-neuronal cell surface marker used in the Neuron Isolation kit.

Download this free scientific poster today and see scientific data about the expression of the non-neuronal cell marker:

  • In different neural cell types
  • At different mouse brain regions
  • During different developmental stages (from E14 to P7)

Monoclonal antibody with conformational specificity for a toxic conformer of amyloid β42

4738_ext_08_en_2_L

Amyloid β-protein (Aβ42) oligomerization is an early event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Current diagnostic methods using sequence-specific antibodies against less toxic fibrillar and monomeric Aβ42 run the risk of overdiagnosis. Hence, conformation-specific antibodies against neurotoxic Aβ42 oligomers have garnered much attention for developing more accurate diagnostics. Antibody 24B3, highly specific for the toxic Aβ42 conformer that has a turn at Glu22 and Asp23, recognizes a putative Aβ42 dimer, which forms stable and neurotoxic oligomers more potently than the monomer. 24B3 significantly rescues Aβ42-induced neurotoxicity, whereas sequence-specific antibodies such as 4G8 and 82E1, which recognizes the N-terminus, do not. The ratio of toxic to total Aβ42 in the cerebrospinal fluid of AD patients is significantly higher than in control subjects as measured by sandwich ELISA using antibodies 24B3 and 82E1. Thus, 24B3 may be useful for AD diagnosis and therapy.
