TAFA1 ELISA Kits

靶标信息

TAFA Chemokine Like Family Member 1 (TAFA1) is a gene located on chromosome 7q31.1, encoding a protein that is part of the FAM19A family, known for its role in modulating inflammation and neural development. TAFA1 is expressed in the brain where it influences brain-tissue homeostasis and neuronal signaling pathways. Functionally, TAFA1 acts as a chemokine-like protein, impacting the migration and adhesion of neuronal cells and contributing to neuroprotective activities. Its expression is implicated in maintaining neural network integrity and regulating processes such as neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity. Dysregulation of TAFA1 has been associated with neuroinflammatory conditions and neurodegenerative diseases, reflecting its importance in neural health and pathology. Research into TAFA1 aims to uncover its exact biological roles and potential as a therapeutic target in conditions involving disrupted cellular communication and inflammation in the nervous system.
