TNF-alpha/TNFSF2 Protein, Mouse (Biotinylated, HEK293, His-Avi)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
TNF-α/TNFSF2 protein is secreted by macrophages, binds to TNFRSF1A/TNFR1 and TNFRSF1B/TNFBR, induces tumor cell death and acts as a pyrogen. It is associated with cachexia, stimulates cell proliferation and differentiation, and induces insulin resistance in adipocytes, leading to TNF-induced insulin resistance. TNF-alpha/TNFSF2, Mouse (Biotinylated, HEK293, His-Avi) is the recombinant mouse-derived TNF-alpha/TNFSF2 protein, expressed by HEK293, with N-Avi labeled tag.
- Species: Mouse
- Source: HEK293

Description

It is associated with cachexia, stimulates cell proliferation and differentiation, and induces insulin resistance in adipocytes, leading to TNF-induced insulin resistance.

Background
TNF-alpha/TNFSF2 Protein is a cytokine that binds to TNFRSF1A/TNFR1 and TNFRSF1B/TNFBR. Secreted mainly by macrophages, it can induce cell death in certain tumor cell lines. Additionally, it acts as a potent pyrogen, causing fever through direct action or by stimulating interleukin-1 secretion and is implicated in the induction of cachexia. Under specific conditions, it can stimulate cell proliferation and promote cell differentiation. In adipocytes, it induces insulin resistance by inhibiting insulin-induced IRS1 tyrosine phosphorylation and glucose uptake, while also leading to GKAP42 protein degradation, contributing to TNF-induced insulin resistance. TNF-alpha/TNFSF2 Protein plays a role in angiogenesis by synergistically inducing VEGF production with IL1B and IL6. Furthermore, it facilitates osteoclastogenesis, thereby mediating bone resorption. Finally, the TNF intracellular domain (ICD) form of TNF-alpha/TNFSF2 Protein stimulates IL12 production in dendritic cells.
Verified Bioactivity
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized Human TNFR1, Fc Tag at 5 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind Biotinylated Mouse TNF-alpha Protein, His,Avitag with a linear range of 0.1-3 ng/mL.

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).
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.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
