Biological Activity

Description

Irisin is a hormone derived from the FNDC5 gene that promotes energy expenditure via thermogenesis. Irisin Protein, Human/Mouse/Rat (HEK293, N-His) is the recombinant human, rat, mouse-derived Irisin protein, expressed by HEK293 , with N-6*His labeled tag.

Background

Irisin is a hormone found to be derived from the fibronectin type III domain (FNDC5) gene, which is primarily released from skeletal muscle following exercise or exposure to cold. Irisin is primarily secreted by muscle and increases with exercise. In particular, irisin has been shown to have beneficial effects on adipose tissue, brain, and bone[1]. Recombinant human/mouse/rat irisin protein (20-200 ng/ml; 24 h) had no effect on E-selectin expression at low concentrations. When HUVECs were treated with high concentrations of irisin (200 ng/ml), soluble E-selectin concentrations were similar to levels detected in controls treated with regular growth medium[2].

Verified Bioactivity

Measured by its ability to induce p38 MAPK activation in 3T3 L1 mouse embryonic fibroblast adipose-like cells. 1 μg/mL of Recombinant Human Irisin can effectively induce p38 MAPK activation.

Endotoxin Level

<1 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
