Biological Activity

Description

PDGF-CC Protein, Human (HEK293) is a member of the PDGF family, binds to PDGFR-α and PDGFR-β and acts as potent angiogenic factor.

Background

PDGF-CC is a relatively new member of the PDGF family, abundantly expressed by different types of cells, such as tumor cells, endothelial cells (ECs), vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), pericytes, fibroblasts, and macrophages. PDGF-CC binds to PDGFR-α and PDGFR-β, which are also expressed by many different cell types, including tumor cells, VSMCs, pericytes, and fibroblasts, all of which play important roles in angiogenesis. PDGF-CC is a potent angiogenic factor[1].

Verified Bioactivity

Measured in a cell proliferation assay using Balb/3T3 cells. The ED50 for this effect is <1 ng/mL.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

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

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.
