Cat. No.	Z200535
Name	Recombinant Mouse THPO
Description	Thrombopoietin, known also as TSF (thrombopoiesis stimulating factor), for mediator substances that function as natural stimulators of megakaryocytopoiesis and thus, promote the differentiation of platelets. Thrombopoietin stimulates an increase in the sizes and numbers of megakaryocytes. It also increases the number of small acetyl-cholinesterase positive cells that are early precursor cells of the megakaryocytic lineage. Thrombopoietin is a protein of 332 amino acids that shows significant homology with Epo (erythropoietin) in its N-terminal domain. A comparison of human and porcine Thrombopoietin sequences shows 83% identity between the erythropoietin-like domains but only 67% between the C-terminal domains.

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.
