Associations of Cntf with chemical compounds

  • In Contrast to AAV-Mediated Cntf Expression, AAV-Mediated Gdnf Expression Enhances Gene Replacement Therapy in Rodent Models of Retinal Degeneration [12].
  • In vitro, CNTF only marginally affected TNF production by LPS-stimulated mouse splenocytes, but it acted synergistically with dexamethasone (DEX) in inhibiting TNF production [2].
  • CNTF was found to increase the number of surviving neurons and to enhance the release of radiolabeled Ch/ACh; the other factors were without effect [13].
  • Both leptin and CNTF reduced AMPK activity and acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase phosphorylation in the ARC and PVN of control-fed mice [14].
  • As interleukin-6, leukemia inhibitory factor, and ciliary neurotrophic factor were previously reported to inhibit the production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF), we studied the effect of CT-1 on serum and heart TNF levels in mice treated with lipopolysaccharide (100 ng/mouse, iv) [15].
