Specifications
Target Information
Chicken Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor Receptor Subunit Alpha (CNTFR) is a key component of the CNTF receptor complex, providing receptor specificity. It is highly conserved across species and predominantly localized to the nervous system and skeletal muscle. CNTFR binds to ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), which stimulates gene expression, cell survival, and differentiation in various neuronal cell types, including sensory, sympathetic, and motor neurons. In chickens, CNTFR is crucial for neuroprotection and is involved in immune responses and inflammation. Abnormal expression of CNTFR has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases and metabolic disorders.
