Biological Activity

Description

PDGF-BB Protein, Mouse is an active PDGF isoform, used in cell culture applications.

Background

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].

Verified Bioactivity

The ED50 is <2.5 ng/mL as measured by 3T3 cells, corresponding to a specific activity of >4 × 105 units/mg.

Results
  • Experimental Validation Results for PDGF-BB Protein, Mouse
    Determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of the proliferation of Balb/c 3T3 cells. The ED50 for this effect is 1.035 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity is 9.66×105 units/mg.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

1.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 10 mM sodium citrate, pH 3.0.
2.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 20 mM sodium citrate, pH 4.0, 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.
