Description
Platelet factor 4, also known as CXCL4, is expressed in megakaryocytes and stored in the α-granules of platelets. Recombinant human PF-4 is a 7.8 kDa protein containing 70 amino acid residues, including the four highly conserved residues present in CXC chemokines. Platelet factor 4 can be antiproliferative and antiangiogenic, at least in part via interfering with FGF2 and VEGF heparin binding and thus inhibiting their signaling. However, it can also be proinflammatory and proatherogenic through multiple effects on monocytes, macrophages and endothelial cells.
CAS Number

Endotoxin
< 0.2 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
Purity
> 95% as analyzed by SDS-PAGE and HPLC.
Bioactivity
ED50 < 10 ug/ml, measured by its ability to inhibit human FGF-basic-dependent proliferation of NR6R 3T3 mouse fibroblast cells.
Reconstitution
Reconstituted in ddH2O or PBS at 100 μg/ml.
