Biological Activity

Description

PDGF-BB Protein, Human (P.pastoris) is the most active PDGF isoform, binds to PDGF receptor, promotes diverse cell types proliferation and osteogenesis, and further stimulates bone formation in fracture or defect.

Background

Recombinant Human Platelet-derived Growth Factor-BB (P.pastoris-expressed) is the most active PDGF isoform, binds to PDGF receptor, promotes diverse cell types proliferation and osteogenesis, and further stimulates bone formation in fracture or defect. Platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) is primarily secreted from platelet α-granules and is the most active PDGF isoform in bone and other connective tissue as it can bind to all known PDGF receptors. PDGF-BB plays an important role in bone regeneration by inducing mitogenesis, chemotaxis, extracellular matrix formation, and vascularization[1]. Recombinant Human Platelet-derived Growth Factor-BB (rhPDGF-BB) accelerates tendon healing by improving matrix remodeling, increased collagen synthesis, and increased cell proliferation. Recombinant Human Platelet-derived Growth Factor-BB is also efficacious in a non-ruptured, degenerated, tendinopathy model. Furthermore, Recombinant Human Platelet-derived Growth Factor-BB addresses chronic tendinopathies by inducing proliferation and migration of progenitor cells and tenocytes, which stimulate structural repair of the degenerated tendon[2].

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 10 mM acetic acid.

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

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
