Description
Product Description
Thrombopoietin (TPO), is a key regulator of megakaryocytopoiesis and thrombopoiesis. The 353 amino acid (aa) human TPO precursor is cleaved to yield the 332 aa mature protein. Mature human TPO shares approximately 70% aa sequence homology with mouse and rat TPO. TPO and its receptor (c-Mpl) are the major regulators of megakaryocyte and platelet production and serve a critical and non-redundant role in hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) biology. TPO signals through the Jak-STAT, Ras-Raf-MAPK, and PI3K pathways, and promotes survival, proliferation, and polyploidization in megakaryocytes. The proto-oncogene c- also plays an important role in many of these same processes.

|
Reconstitution |
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water (400 μL) to a concentration of 0.25 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20°C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions. |
Shipping and Storage
The products are shipped with ice pack and can be stored at -20℃ for 1 year.
1 month, 2 to 8 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
3 months, -20 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities when first used and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Cautions
1.Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
2.For your safety and health, please wear lab coats and disposable gloves for operation.
3.For research use only.
