Biological Activity    

Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVEC) is less than 5ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of >2.0×105IU/mg.


Physical Appearance    

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.


Formulation    

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


Endotoxin    

Less than 1EU/μg of rMuVEGF164 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.

Background    

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor is a sub-family of growth factors produced by cells, which stimulates vasculogenesis and angiogenesis. VEGF's normal function is to create new blood vessels during embryonic development, new blood vessels after injury, muscle following exercise, and new vessels (collateral circulation) to bypass blocked vessels. Mouse and rat express alternately spliced isoforms of 120, 164, and 188 amino acids (a.a.) in length. Recombinant mouse VEGF164 contains 165 amino acids residues and it is a disulfide-linked homodimer. In addition, it shares 97%a.a. sequence identity with corresponding regions of rat, 89% with human and porcine, 88% with bovine, and 90% with feline, equine and canine VEGF, respectively.
