Biological Activity:
The ED50 was determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of thymidine uptake by BALB/c 3T3 cells is ≤ 1 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity of ≥ 1 x 106 units/mg.
Purity:
Greater than 98% by SDS-PAGE gel and HPLC analyses.

Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per μg (1EU/μg).
physical-state:
Lyophilized
Storage Conditions:
The lyophilized PDGF-AB recombinant protein is stable for at least 2 years from date of receipt at -20°C. Reconstituted PDGF-AB is stable for at least 3 months when stored in working aliquots with a carrier protein at -20°C. As with any protein, exposing PDGF-AB recombinant protein to repeated freeze / thaw cycles is not recommended. When working with proteins care should be taken to keep recombinant protein at a cool and stable temperature.

Background:
PDGFs are disulfide-linked dimers consisting of two 12.0-13.5 kDa polypeptide chains, designated PDGF-A and PDGF-B chains. The three naturally occurring PDGFs; PDGF-AA, PDGF-BB and PDGF-AB, are potent mitogens for a variety of cell types including smooth muscle cells, connective tissue cells, bone and cartilage cells, and some blood cells. The PDGFs are stored in platelet α-granules and are released upon platelet activation. The PDGFs are involved in a number of biological processes, including hyperplasia, chemotaxis, embryonic neuron development, and respiratory tubule epithelial cell development. Two distinct signaling receptors used by PDGFs have been identified and named PDGFR-α and PDGFR-B. PDGFR-a is high-affinity receptor for each of the three PDGF forms. On the other hand, PDGFR-B interacts with only PDGF-BB and PDGF-AB. Recombinant human PDGF-AB is a 26.4 kDa disulfide-linked dimer, consisting of one A chain and one B chains (234 total amino acids).
