Biological Activity

Description

IHH Protein, Human is involved in chondrocyte differentiation, proliferation and maturation especially during endochondral ossification.

Background

Indian hedgehog (Ihh), which encodes amember of the Hedgehog family of signaling factors, is initially expressed in chondrocytes of the early cartilaginous skeletal elements[1]. Indian Hedgehog is an antagonist of Wnt signaling in colonic epithelial cell differentiation[2]. Ihh is involved in chondrocyte differentiation, proliferation and maturation especially during endochondral ossification. It regulates its effects by feedback control of parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP) [3].

Verified Bioactivity

1.The ED50 is <3 μg/mL as measured by its ability to induce alkaline phosphatase production by CCL-226 cells.
2.Measured by its ability to induce alkaline phosphatase production by C3H10T1/2 fibroblasts. The ED50 for this effect is typically 2-10 μg/mL.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

1.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
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.

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

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
