Data sheet

Formulation The CXCL4 protein was lyophilized in PBS buffer pH-7.4.
Solubility It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized CXCL4 in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Purity Greater than 95.0% as determined by(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
Description Human PF-4 a 7.8 kDa protein consisting of 70 amino acid residues.
Protein Background Platelet factor-4 is a 70-amino acid protein that is released from the alpha-granules of activated platelets and binds with high affinity to heparin. Its major physiologic role appears to be neutralization of heparin-like molecules on the endothelial surface of blood vessels, thereby inhibiting local antithrombin III activity and promoting coagulation. As a strong chemoattractant for neutrophils and fibroblasts, PF4 probably has a role in inflammation and wound repair. Oncostatin-A is a member of the CXC chemokine family. Human PF4 is used for the proof of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia. Furthermore it is used as an inhibitor in the angiogenesis during tumor therapy.
Expression host Human Platelets.
Synonyms CXCL4, PF-4, PF4, Iroplact, Oncostatin-A, SCYB4, MGC138298.
Reagent Appearance Sterile Filtered white lyophilized powder.
Stability Human CXCL4 although stable at 25°C 1 week, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Amino acid sequence The sequence of the first four N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Glu-Ala-Glu-Glu.
Biological Activity The ED50 of CXCL4 as determined by its ability to inhibit human FGF basic dependent proliferation of NR6R3T3 mouse fibroblasts was found to be 5-15 ug/ml.
