Cat. No.	Z102625
Name	Recombinant Human IL5 (E. coli)
Description	Interleukin 5 (IL5) is a specific hematopoietic growth factor that is responsible for the growth and differentiation of eosinophils. IL5 promotes the growth of immature hematopoietic progenitor cells BFU-E while it causes differentiation of CFU-E the proliferation of which is inhibited by IL5. B cells can be made responsive to IL5 by treatment with suboptimal doses of IL1. Interleukin 5 also promotes the generation of cytotoxic T cells from thymocytes. In thymocytes IL5 induces the expression of high affinity IL2 receptors. Human and mouse IL5 is cross-species reactive. Recombinant Human IL5 is a 26.5 kDa disulfide-linked homodimerized protein.

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.
