Cat. No.	Z200205
Name	Recombinant Mouse CXCL12 (SDF-1 beta) (E. coli)
Description	SDF-1-alpha and SDF-1-beta are small cytokines belonging to the CXC- Chemokines. SDF-1 is identical with a chemokine reported to function as a pre-B-cell growth factor in the presence of IL-7 and isolated originally from a murine bone marrow stromal cell line. Human SDF-1-alpha and SDF-1-beta are encoded by a single gene and arise by alternative splicing. SDF-1 acts on lymphocytes and monocytes but not neutrophils in vitro and is a highly potent chemoattractant for mononuclear cells in vivo. In addition. SDF-1 also induces intracellular actin polymerization in lymphocytes. SDF acts as a chemoattractant for human hematopoietic progenitor cells expressing CD34 giving rise to mixed types of progenitors, and more primitive types. The chemotactic response is inhibited by pertussis toxin. Chemotaxis of CD34(+) cells in response to SDF is increased by IL-3 in vitro. SDF has been shown also to induce a transient elevation of cytoplasmic calcium in these cells.

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.
