EGTA is a cell-impermeant specific calcium ion chelator. EGTA has an apparent calcium dissociation constant (Kd) of 60.5 nM at physiological pH (7.4) and has very high specificity for Ca2+ over Mg2+ (Mg2+ Kd 1-10 mM). EGTA significantly inhibits the substrate adherence capacity of inflammatory macrophages.

    HFFs were infected with Towne or Towne-ΔUL23 and co-cultured with or without activated Jurkat cells, followed by determination of viral titers. Prior to co-culture, the culture medium was sequentially supplemented with EGTA (5 mg/mL), Kp7-6 (10 mg/mL), anti-human IFN-γ neutralizing antibody (IFN-γ NAb, 10 µg/mL), anti-TRAIL neutralizing antibody (TRAIL NAb, 10 µg/mL), and infliximab (10 ng/mL) for 30 min.

    Description

    EGTA is a cell-impermeant specific calcium ion chelator. EGTA has an apparent calcium dissociation constant (Kd) of 60.5 nM at physiological pH (7.4) and has very high specificity for Ca2+ over Mg2+ (Mg2+ Kd 1-10 mM). EGTA significantly inhibits the substrate adherence capacity of inflammatory macrophages[1][2].

    In Vitro

    EGTA, proposed as endodontic irrigant, decreases substrate adherence capacity of inflammatory macrophages in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The EGTA concentration that causes an IC50 is 202 mM. Chelators react with calcium ions in the hydroxyapatite crystals to produce a metallic chelate. Removal of calcium ions from the dentine makes the dentinal tissue softer, especially the hydroxyapatite-rich peritubular dentin and increases the diameter of exposed dentinal tubules[2].

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
