Background Information
NEFH (NF200), also named as KIAA0845 and NFH, belongs to the intermediate filament family. It has an important function in mature axons that is not subserved by the two smaller NF proteins. Neurofilaments are the 10 nm intermediate filaments found specifically in neurons. They are a major component of the cell's cytoskeleton, and provide support for normal axonal radial growth. Neurofilaments usually contain three intermediate filament proteins: L, M, and H which are involved in the maintenance of neuronal caliber. The names given to the three major neurofilament subunits are based upon the apparent molecular weight of the mammalian subunits on SDS-PAGE: NF-L, 65-68 kDa; NF-M,145-160 kDa and NF-H, 200-220 kDa. This antibody can recognize both NEFH and NEFM.

Reviews
What customers say
All four reviews are 5-star. Users report excellent performance for immunofluorescence/immunocytochemistry on rat hippocampal tissue, mouse and human retinal neurons, and neurogenic differentiation cells, with clear specific staining, low background, and well-defined axonal structures. Western blotting on NSC34 cells at 1:400 also yielded strong bands. Overall, reviewers describe the antibody as reliable and consistent across applications, with one user stating they would "highly recommend" it.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
Jiahao (Verified Customer) (07-16-2026) | The antibody produced clear and specific NF200 staining in rat hippocampal tissue with low background. Axonal structures were well defined, and the staining was consistent across sections. It worked reliably for immunofluorescence and was suitable for evaluating axonal integrity and myelin coverage.
