Fractalkine, also known as neurotactin and CX3CL1, is a CX3C cytokine found in both a soluble and a membrane-bound form. The soluble form is chemotactic for T-cells and monocytes while the membrane-bound form promotes adhesion of leukocytes to endothelial cells. Research has also demonstrated that fractalkine is able to suppress the production of nitrous oxide, IL-6 and TNF-alpha in activated microglia suggesting that it may act as an intrinsic inhibitor against neurotoxicity by activated microglia. Fractalkine is widely expressed in a range of tissues including the small intestine, colon, testis, prostate, heart, brain, lung, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 0.5-1ug/ml Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile 40-50% glycerol, aliquot and store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
