EPIREGULIN MOUSE RECOMBINA 1PC X 50UG (C005B-227259)

General description

Recombinant, mouse epiregulin expressed in E. coli with an N-terminal methionine. Epiregulin is shown to inhibit epithelial tumor growth, able to stimulate growth of fibroblasts and other cell types, and has been shown to be an autocrine growth factor in human epidermal keratinocytes.

Biochem/physiol Actions

ED₅₀ = 0.3-1 ng/ml as measured in a cell proliferation assay using Balb/3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblasts.
