Cat. No.	Z300165
Name	Recombinant Rat IL20
Description	IL-19 and IL-20 are mainly produced by activated monocytes , IL-24 is produced by Th2 cells, monocytes, and melanocytic cells , and IL-22 and IL-26 are primarily produced by activated T cells. Like IL-10, these class II cytokines signal through heterodimeric receptors. Overexpression of IL-20 in transgenic mice causes neonatal death as well as skin abnormalities, including aberrant epidermal differentiation. IL-20 selectively enhances multipotential hematopoietic progenitors in vitro and in vivo. IL-20 is preferentially expressed in monocytes18 and induces STAT 3 activation through binding to 2 types of IL-20 receptor (R) complexes, either IL- 20R1/IL-20R2 or IL-22R1/IL- 20R2

Formulation	Recombinant Rat Interleukin-20 was lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered PBS solution pH 7.5.
Function	The ED(50) was determined by by a cell proliferation assay using human IL-20R-alpha and human IL-20R-beta co-transfected murine BaF3 pro-B cells, and was found to be less than 0.6 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity of 1.7 x 10^6 IU/mg.
Reconstitution	A quick spin of the vial followed by reconstitution in 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. Z300165

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.
