Background: PDGF-AA

PDGF-AA is expressed by monocytes, macrophages, fibroblasts, and vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells. It forms disulfide-linked homodimers as well as heterodimers with PDGF-B. PDGF-AA acts as a chemoattractant for multiple cell types. It signals through PDGF R alpha which is also the functional receptor for PDGF-AB, -BB, and -CC. PDGF-AA activity is modulated by the association of FGF R1 or Neuropilin-1 with PDGF R alpha.

Product Specific Notices for Recombinant Rat PDGF-AA Protein

This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8 degrees C, but should be kept at -20 degrees C for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is most stable at -20 to -80 degrees C, and can be stored for one week at 2-8 degrees C. For maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20 degrees C to -80 degrees C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. This product is guaranteed for 1 year from date of receipt.
