Cat. No.	Z102435
Name	Recombinant Human IL17F
Description	Interleukin 17F is a disulfide-linked homodimeric protein belonging to the IL-17 family of proinflammatory cytokines. Members belonging to this family share conserved features of cysteine-knot structures but differ in their N-terminal regions. The T-helper cell produced IL-17 family is inducible by IL15 and IL23, and IL17F induces T-cell and PBMC activation and proliferation. It also performs cartilage matrix turnover and angiogenesis prevention. Out of the IL-17 family, IL17F is the most homologous to IL17 and dimerizes in a way similar to that of nerve growth factors (NGF) and other neurotrophins.

Species	Human (H. sapiens)
Appearance	Lyophilized Powder
Molecular Weight	15.2 kDa
Endotoxin Level	<1.0 EU/µg of recombinant protein as determined by the LAL method
Purity	>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE
Formulation	Lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered solution in 10mM sodium citrate buffer pH 3
Function	The ED50 is 8.0-40.0ng/mL as determined by its ability to induce IL-6 secretion by NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells
Reconstitution	A quick spin of the vial followed by reconstitution in sterile distilled water to a concentration not less than 0.1 mg/mL. This solution can then be diluted into other buffers.
Shipping Conditions	This lyophilized protein is shipped at ambient temperature. Cold packs may be used if transit temperatures are elevated. The product remains stable during normal shipping conditions.
Storage	Upon receipt, store lyophilized protein at –70°C for long-term storage. Short-term storage at –20°C is acceptable if necessary. Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C for up to 1 month, or at –20°C for up to 6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Usage	For research use only. Not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
Material Citation	If use of this material results in a scientific publication, please cite the material in the following manner: Applied Biological Materials Inc, Cat. No. Z102435

How do I choose the right growth factor for my experiment?

Cell type: Different cells respond to different growth factors. Choose a growth factor that promotes the growth or differentiation of your target cell type.
Desired outcome: Whether you are studying proliferation, differentiation, or survival, different growth factors will promote different cellular behaviors.
Concentration and formulation: Different experiments may require varying concentrations of growth factors.

	What is the shelf life and storage condition of this product?
	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.
