| 反应种属 | Human |
| 应用 | Western Blot(0.1 µg/mL) Immunohistochemistry(5-15 µg/mL) |
| 目标/特异性 | Detects human TAFA1/FAM19A1 in direct ELISAs and Western blots. In direct ELISAs, approximately 15% cross-reactivity with recombinant human (rh) TAFA3 and rhTAFA4 is observed, less than 10% cross-reactivity with rhTAFA2 is observed and less than 1% cross-reactivity with rhTAFA5 is observed. |
| 使用方法 | Western Blot: 0.1 µg/mL Immunohistochemistry: 5-15 µg/mL Neutralization: Measured by its ability to neutralize the the enhancemment of neurite outgrowth of cortical neurons from E16-E18 rat embryos induced by TAFA-1. The Neutralization Dose (ND50) is typically 15 µg/mL in the presence of 10 µg/mL Recombinant Human TAFA-1. |

| 背景 | TAFA1 (also FAM19A1) is a secreted, 13 kDa member of the FAM19/TAFA family of chemokine-like proteins (1). It is synthesized as a 133 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains a 19 aa signal sequence and a 114 aa mature chain. Like other members of the FAM19/TAFA family, mature TAFA1 contains 10 regularly spaced cysteine residues that follow the pattern CX7CCX13CXCX14CX11CX4CX5CX10C, in which C represents a conserved cysteine residue and X represents a noncysteine amino acid (1). Human TAFA1 is 100% aa identical to mouse TAFA1. TAFA1 is expressed exclusively in the brain, with highest expression in the frontal cortex, temporal cortex, occipital cortex, parietal cortex and medulla, and low levels in the basal ganglion, thalamus, and cerebellum (1). The biological functions of TAFA family members remain to be determined, but there are a few tentative hypotheses. First, TAFAs may modulate immune responses in the CNS by functioning as brain-specific chemokines, and may act with other chemokines to optimize the recruitment and activity of immune cells in the CNS (1). Second, TAFAs may represent a novel class of neurokines that act as regulators of immune nervous cells (1, 2). And third, TAFAs may control axonal sprouting following brain injury (1). |

TAFA1/FAM19A1 in Human Brain. TAFA1/FAM19A1 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human brain (cortex) using Goat Anti-Human TAFA1/FAM19A1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5154) at 15 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Lower panel shows a lack of labeling when primary antibodies are omitted and tissue is stained only with secondary antibody followed by incubation with detection reagents.
