Anti-Peripherin Antibody

Descrição detalhada : Peripherin is a 56-58 kDa type III intermediate filament protein (Portier et al. 1983), expressed in motor, sensory and sympathetic system neurons as well as neuroendocrine skin carcinomas and certain melanocytic tumors. It is often used an indicator of enteric ganglion cell density in normal and diseased (e.g. Hirschsprung's disease) states. Abnormal inclusions containing peripherin have also been reported in ALS. During normal, late neurogenesis peripherin appears after the expression of nestin, vimentin, alpha-internexin and neurofilaments and is involved in the differentiation of neurons, namely of the peripheral nervous system, and also probably in axonal regeneration. Peripherin is not related to peripherin-RDS, a photoreceptor protein associated with retinal degeneration and blindness.
