Biological Activity

Description

GM-CSF Protein is a hematopoietic growth factor and immunomodulator. By binding to specific receptors on the surface of target cells, GM-CSF Protein activates intracellular signaling pathways to regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, maturation, and function. GM-CSF Protein plays an important role in the hematopoietic process and the immune system. GM-CSF Protein, Mouse is a recombinant GM-CSF Protein expressed by E. coli without a tag[1][2][3][4].

Background

GM-CSF is a cytokine secreted by various cells (such as T cells, monocytes, endothelial cells, etc.), playing an important role in the immune system and hematopoietic process. GM-CSF can stimulate the proliferation and differentiation of precursor cells of granulocytes (such as neutrophils and eosinophils) and macrophages in the bone marrow, promoting the production of mature blood cells. GM-CSF can also activate mature granulocytes and macrophages, enhancing their phagocytic ability, bactericidal activity, and antigen-presenting function, and participating in innate and adaptive immune responses. In addition, GM-CSF also has pro-inflammatory activity[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

GM-CSF Protein (Mouse; 25 ng/mL; 30 min-24 h) enhances glycolytic capacity in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages, upregulates the expression of glucose transporters GLUT-1, -3, and -4, and induces the transcription and protein expression of c-Myc[5].

In Vivo

GM-CSF Protein (Mouse; 2-4 ng; aerosol inhalation; 4-5 weeks) improves pulmonary alveolar proteinosis in GM-CSF-deficient mice[6].

Verified Bioactivity

1.The ED50 is <5 pg/mL as measured by murine FDC-P1 cells, corresponding to a specific activity of >2 × 107 units/mg.
2.Measured in a cell proliferation assay using THP-1 human erythroleukemic cells. The ED50 for this effect is ≤30 pg/mL, corresponding to a specific activity is ≥3.33×107 units/mg.
3.Mouse GM-CSF R alpha captured on CM5 Chip can bind Mouse GM-CSF with an affinity constant of 1.0-10.0 nM as determined in SPR assay.

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

1.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 50 mM Tris-HCl, 300 mM NaCl, 200 mM arginine, pH 8.0.
2.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4, 8% trehalose.
Please refer to the lot-specific COA for specific buffer information.
Note: For SPR assay, please replace the buffer. Primary amine components (e.g., Tris, imidazole) can affect protein-coupled chips.

Endotoxin Level

<0.2 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Shipping
