HGF Human Recombinant produced in HEK cells is a glycosylated peptide, containing 697 a.a. (Gln-32 to Ser-728) having a total molecular weight of 70kDa.The HGF is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) is a multifunctional growth factor which regulates both cell growth and cell motility. It exerts a strong mitogenic effect on hepatocytes and primary epithelial cells. HGF synergizes with Interleukin-3 and GM-CSF to stimulate colony formation of hematopoietic progenitor cells in vitro and may, therefore, also modulate hematopoiesis.
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized HGF in sterile PBS containing 0.1% endotoxin-free recombinant HSA. The specific activity was determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of the proliferation of the monkey epithelial cell line 4MBr-5 and is typically 10-50ng/ml.
