1 15542451 CNTF mediates its function by activating a tripartite receptor comprising the CNTF receptor alpha chain (CNTFRalpha), the leukemia inhibitory factor receptor beta chain (LIFRbeta) and gp130.
2 15542451 Rat and human CNTF differ in their fine specificities: in addition to CNTFR, rat CNTF has been shown to activate the LIFR (a heterodimer of LIFRbeta and gp130), whereas human CNTF can bind and activate a tripartite receptor comprising the IL-6 receptor alpha chain (IL-6Ralpha) and LIFR.
3 15542451 Recombinant mouse CNTF was active and showed a high level of specificity for mouse CNTFR.
4 15542451 Recombinant mouse CNTF is therefore specific for CNTFR and as such represents a useful tool with which to study CNTF in mouse models.
5 15542451 It appears well suited for the comparative evaluation of CNTF and the two additional recently discovered CNTFR ligands, cardiotrophin-like cytokinecytokine-like factor-1 and neuropoietin.
