Product Overview
Tag | N/A |
Host Species | Human |
Accession | P55145 |
Synonym | Arginine-rich protein, Protein ARMET, ARP, Recombinant Human Mesencephalic Astrocyte-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (MANF) |
Background | MANF is a neurotrophic factor found mainly in central nervous tissues where it may remain localized to the endoplasmic reticulum/Golgi apparatus, or secreted. It has been shown that MANF plays an important role in protecting cells against tunicamycin and thapsigargin -induced cell death. Without MANF, cells become increasingly vulnerable to the aforementioned drugs. Also, MANF is structurally homologous to CDNF. |

Target Details
Target Function | Selectively promotes the survival of dopaminergic neurons of the ventral mid-brain. Modulates GABAergic transmission to the dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra. Enhances spontaneous, as well as evoked, GABAergic inhibitory postsynaptic currents in dopaminergic neurons. Inhibits cell proliferation and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced cell death. Retained in the ER/sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) through association with the endoplasmic reticulum chaperone protein HSPA5 under normal conditions. Up-regulated and secreted by the ER/SR in response to ER stress and hypoxia. Following secretion by the ER/SR, directly binds to 3-O-sulfogalactosylceramide, a lipid sulfatide in the outer cell membrane of target cells. Sulfatide binding promotes its cellular uptake by endocytosis, and is required for its role in alleviating ER stress and cell toxicity under hypoxic and ER stress conditions. |
