Predicted MW:Â Dimer, 12.4/24.7 kDa (110/220 aa)
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is an important regulator of cell growth, proliferation, and angiogenesis. PDGF synthesis is induced by IL-1, IL-6, TNF-alpha, TGF-beta and EGF signaling. PDGF functions as a mitogenic growth hormone on cells of mesenchymal lineage, such as smooth muscle and glial cells. PDGF is also stored in the alpha-granules of platelets and is released upon adherence to traumatized tissues. PDGF is a dimeric glycoprotein formed by two A chains (AA), two B chains (BB), or as a heterodimer with an A and a B chain (AB). The PDGF dimer binds the cell surface receptor tyrosine kinases PDGFR-alpha and PDGFR-beta .
Endotoxin: Less than 0.1 ng/µg (1 IEU/µg) as determined by LAL test.
Biological Activity was determined by 3T3 cell proliferation at <=2 ng/mL ; >= 5.0 x 10^5 units/mL  . Centrifuge vial before opening, Suspend the product by gently pipetting the above recommended solution down the sides of the vial. DO NOT VORTEX. Allow several minutes for complete reconstitution. For prolonged storage, dilute to working aliquots in a 0.1% BSA solution, store at -80°C and avoid repeat freeze thaws. Upon reconstitution, a small amount of visible precipitate can be expected. A 10% overfill has been added to the total material vialed to compensate for this loss.
For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic/therapeutics procedures.
| Subcellular location: | Secreted |
| Tissue Specificity: | Localized to vascular smooth muscle cells. Also weakly expressed by cortical interstitial cells but absent in tubules. Up-regulated in areas of renal fibrosis. In mice with unilateral ureteral obstruction, an increased expression in interstitial cells and in some tubules observed after day 4. |
