背景描述 | IGFBP7, also known as mac25, prostacyclin-stimulating factor (PSF), tumor adhesion factor (TAF), and angiomodulin (AGM), is a secreted protein that belongs to the insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding protein (IGFBP) family. In contrast to the other family members, IGFBP7 binds IGFs through the N-terminal domain with low affinity. IGFBP7 is expressed in various human tissues, including the brain, liver, pancreas, and skeletal muscle, and is secreted into circulation. IGF-BP7 modulates many biological functions, such as protein synthesis, proliferation, anti-apoptosis, and cell survival. Moreover, it has been reported that IGFBP7 promotes cardiac senescence through IGF-1R/IRS/AKT-dependent suppression of FOXO3a, inhibiting DNA repair, subsequently the leading to the progression of Heart failure. Human and mouse IGFBP7 are highly homologous, sharing 94% a.a. sequence identity. |

产品应用 | Cell Culture |
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. |
