Formulation | The protein was filtered (0.2µm) and lyophilized from a concentrated solution containing PBS, 300mM NaCl, pH 7.4 and 5% trehalose. |
HB-EGF is an EGF related growth factor which signals via the EGF receptor, and stimulates the proliferation of SMC (smooth muscle cells), fibroblasts, epithelial cells and keratinocytes. HB-EGF is expressed in various cell types and tissues, including vascular endothelial cells and SMC, macrophages, skeletal muscle, keratinocytes and particular tumor cells. HB-EGFбпs ability to explicitly bind heparin and heparin sulfate proteoglycans is dissimilar from other EGF-like molecules, and might be related to the enhanced mitogenic activity, relative to EGF, that HB-EGF exerts on smooth muscle cells.
The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using balb/c 3T3 cells is < 1.0 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1.0×106 units/mg.
