背景描述 | Bone Morphogenetic Protein-8B (BMP-8B) is an extracellular multifunctional signaling cytokine that is also a member of the TGF-β family. BMP-8B can bind with the TGF-β receptor and is involved in SMAD protein signal transduction. BMP-8B plays a role in bone and cartilage development. It is expressed in brown adipose tissues and the hypothalamus, which can affect thermogenesis and susceptibility to obesity. |
别称 | bone morphogenetic protein 8b, OP-2 (Osteogenic Protein-2), BMP8 |

1. Before opening, centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 5 mins.
2.Initial Reconstitution
· Reconstitute the Lyophilized Protein in sterile H₂O to a concentration of 100-200 μg/mL.
· Then, incubate it at room temperature for at least 20 mins to ensure sufficient dissolution.
Do Not Vortex! Vigorous shaking may impair the biological activity of the protein.
· Store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week.
3.Extended Storage
· After the initial reconstitution, further dilute the reconstituted protein in a buffer containing a carrier protein or stabilizer (e.g., 0.1% BSA, 10% FBS, 5% HSA, or 5% trehalose solution). The final concentration is not less than 10 μg/ml.
· Prepare aliquots (≥20 μl).
· Store at -20°C or -80°C for 3 to 6 months.
Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
储存 | Lyophilized Protein: Store at -20°C for 1 year. Initial Reconstitution: Store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week. Extended Storage: Store at -20°C or -80°C for 3 to 6 months with a carrier protein or stabilizer. |
