- Meteorin regulates glial cell differentiation and promotes the formation of axonal networks during neurogenesis. The deduced 290aa protein shares 82% amino acid identity with the 293aa human ortholog. Both human and mouse meteorin contain a putative N-terminal signal peptide. Immunoblot analysis of cell fractions from Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing mouse meteorin localized meteorin to the lysate and culture supernatant, suggesting that meteorin is secreted. In situ hybridization of developing mouse tissues showed predominant meteorin expression in the central and peripheral nervous system in neural progenitors, glial progenitors, and cells of the astrocyte lineage. Meteorin induction of neurite outgrowth showed an additive effect with neurotrophin-3 (NTF3) but not with NGF (NGFB) or BDNF. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry, Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: ELISA: 1:100-1:5000 Western Blot: 1:50-400 Immunohistochemistry (frozen): 1:50-500 Immunohistochemistry (paraffin): 1:10-100 Immunocytochemistry: 1:50-500 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
