Abstract excerpt

Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) is a cytokine that has been reported to affect cellular differentiation. Mouse CNTF knockouts have progressive motor neuron atrophy, but this protein has uncertain physiological function in humans. A naturally occurring CNTF variant in man, observed in many popu...
