Recombinant Human GM-CSF Protein (C09-1095-618)

Purity＞98% (SDS-PAGE; HPLC) . Purity is greater than 98% as determined by SEC-HPLC and reducing SDS-PAGE.FunctionCytokine that stimulates the growth and differentiation of hematopoietic precursor cells from various lineages, including granulocytes, macrophages, eosinophils and erythrocytes.Human Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) is secreted by a number of different cell types (including activated T cells, B cells, macrophages, mast cells, endothelial cells and fibroblasts) in response to cytokine or immune and inflammatory stimulation. It was initially characterized as a growth factor that can support the in vitro colony formation of granulocyte-macrophage progenitors and has functions of stimulates the growth and differentiation of hematopoietic precursor cells from various lineages. GM-CSF has also been reported to have a functional role on non-hematopoietic cells and can induce human endothelial cells to migrate and proliferate. Additionally, it can stimulate the proliferation of a number of tumor cell lines, including osteogenic sarcoma, carcinoma and adenocarcinoma cell lines. GM-CSF is used as a medication to stimulate the production of white blood cells following chemotherapy and has also recently been evaluated in clinical trials for its potential as a vaccine adjuvant in HIV-infected patients. The recombinant Human GM-CSF is a non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 127 amino acids. Specifications and Purity: Animal Free, >98% (SDS-PAGE, HPLC ), Active, E.coli, No tag, 18-144aa .
