CNTF

CNTF (Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with CNTF include Motor Neuron Disease and Epilepsy, Familial Temporal Lobe, 2. Among its related pathways are Cytokine Signaling in Immune system and Innate Immune System. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include growth factor activity and ciliary neurotrophic factor receptor binding.

Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor

CNTF is a survival factor for various neuronal cell types. Seems to prevent the degeneration of motor axons after axotomy.
