Description
Source : Escherichia Coli. Platelet-Derived Growth Factor AA Human Recombinant is a homodimeric, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 2 x 125 amino acids and having a total molecular mass of 28511 Dalton. PDGF-AA is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB and PDGF-AB, are potent mitogens for a variety of cell types including smooth muscle cells, connective tissue cells, bone and cartilage cells, and some blood cells. The PDGF is stored in platelet alpha-granules and released upon platelet activation. The PDGF is involved in a number of biological processes, including hyperplasia, chemotaxis, embryonic neuron development, and respiratory tubule epithelial cell development. Two distinct signaling receptors used by PDGF have been identified and named PDGFR-alpha and PDGFR-beta. PDGFR-alpha is high-affinity receptor for each of the three PDGF forms. On the other hand, PDGFR-beta interacts with only PDGF-BB and PDGF-AB.
Product Name Alternative
Glioma-derived growth factor||GDGF||Osteosarcoma-derived Growth Factor||ODGF||PDGF-AA||PDGF-1.
Purification
Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Components
Lyophilized without any additives.
Storage Conditions
Lyophilized Platelet-Derived Growth Factor AA although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution PDGF-AA should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) .Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Applications Notes
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Platelet-derived Growth Factor-AA in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100μg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. The ED50, calculated by the dose-dependent proliferation of murine 3T3 indicator cells is < 0.32ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of 3,125x103units/mg.
