Biochem/physiol Actions

WFA is not blood group specific, but has an affinity for N-acetyl-D-galactosamine.

Packaging

Package size based on active conjugate content

Preparation Note

Protein is biotinylated utilizing aminocaproyl spacer.

Analysis Note

Agglutination activity is expressed in μg/ml and is determined from serial dilutions in phosphate buffered saline, pH 6.8, of a 1 mg/ml solution. This activity is the lowest concentration to agglutinate a 2% suspension of human blood group A erythrocytes after 1 hr incubation at 25 °C.

Vanessa Cattaud et al.
Neurobiology of aging, 72, 147-158 (2018-10-03)
Recent findings show that parvalbumin (PV) interneuron function is impaired in Alzheimer's disease (AD), and that this impairment in PV function can be linked to network dysfunction and memory deficits. PV cells are often associated with a specific extracellular matrix

Current methods of experimentally degrading the specialized extracellular matrix (ECM), perineuronal nets (PNNs) have several limitations. Genetic knockout of ECM components typically has only partial effects on PNNs, and knockout of the major ECM component aggrecan is lethal in mice.

The prefrontal cortex (PFC) is a late developing region of the cortex, and its protracted maturation during adolescence may confer a period of plasticity. Closure of critical, or sensitive, periods in sensory cortices coincides with perineuronal net (PNN) expression, leading
