Description
RANTES belongs to the family of chemotactic cytokines known as chemokines and is expressed by an early response gene. The synthesis of RANTES is induced by TNF-alpha and IL-1-alpha. RANTES is chemotactic for T cells, human eosinophils and basophils and plays an active role in recruiting leukocytes into inflammatory sites. RANTES also activates eosinophils to release eosinophilic cationic protein while being a potent activator of oxidative metabolism specific for eosinophils. RANTES increases the adherence of monocytes to endothelial cells and selectively supports the migration of monocytes and T lymphocytes expressing the cell surface markers CD4 and UCHL1.

Concentration
<1.0 EU/μg of recombinant protein as determined by the LAL method
Purity
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE
Solubility
A quick spin of the vial followed by reconstitution in distilled water to a concentration not less than 0.1 mg/mL. This solution can then be diluted into other buffers.
Function
Determined by its ability to chemoattract human blood monocytes using a concentration range of 1-10 ng/mL.

Shipping Conditions
Ambient Temperature
Storage Conditions
The lyophilized protein is stable for at least one year from date of receipt at -70°C. Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at 2° - 8°C for one month, or at -20°C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
