Synonyms    

GMP; NT5B; PNT5; SPG45; SPG65; cN-II


Purity    

>98% by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.


Biological Activity    

Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using murine Balb/c 3T3 cells is less than 3ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of >3.3×10^5IU/mg.


Physical Appearance    

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.


Formulation    

Lyophilized from a 0.2µM filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH7.4.


Endotoxin    

Less than 0.01EU/µg of rHuPDGF-BB GMP as determined by LAL method.


Reconstitution    

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1% BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0mg/ml. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤-20℃. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.

Cytokine


Background    

Approximately 24.8 kDa, a disulfide-linked homodimeric protein containing two 110 amino acid residues polypeptide (B chain).Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) presenting in serum but absent from plasma was first discovered in animal study by Lynch and co-workers in the late 1980s. It is a disulfide-linked dimer consisting of two peptides-chain A and chain B. PDGF has three subforms: PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB, PDGF-AB. It is involved in a number of biological processes, including hyperplasia, embryonic neuron development, chemotaxis, and respiratory tubule epithelial cell development. The function of PDGF is mediated by two receptors (PDGFR-α and PDGFR-β).
