Antigen Preparation
"A synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminus of Meteorin protein. This sequence is identical among human, rat and mouse."
Background
"The Meteorin, a secreted protein, is expressed in undifferentialted neural progenitors and in astrocyte lineage, including radial glia, or glical cells which are major components of the nervous system. Meteorin selectively promoted astrocyte formation from mouse cerebrocortical neurospheres in differentiation culture, whereas it induced cerebellar astrocytes to become radial glia. Meteorin also induced axonal extension in small and intermediate neurons of sensory ganglia by activating nearby satellite glia. Meteorin plays important roles in both glial cell differentiation and axonal network formation during neurogenesis."
