Abstract:
:A sensitive time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay of nerve growth factor (NGF) has been developed. The method is based on the unique property of the lanthanides for delayed fluorescence, which reduces substantially the endogenous fluorescence of biological substances, because the excitation of the sample and detection of the fluorescence signal are separated in time and in wavelength. Using the europium-conjugated antibodies to the NGF from Vipera lebetina (snake) venom and to the beta NGF from mouse submandibular gland in a solid-phase quantitative two-site fluoroimmunoassay, we obtained a maximal sensitivity of 10 pg/ml (0.38 pM)for mouse NGF and 40 pg/ml (1.2 pM) for snake NGF. Using this method, we investigated the disappearance of NGF from rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cell culture medium. Mouse beta NGF (5-10 ng/ml) disappeared completely after 12 h of incubation, whereas snake NGF was not substantially internalized even after 48 h.
