Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Insulin Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-4 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. | ||
Stability | Lyophilized IGFBP4 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Insulin Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-4 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. | ||
Biological Activity | The ED50 is determined by its ability to inhibit IGF-II induced proliferation of MCF-7 cells and is <than 0.1 μg/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1.0 × 104 IU/mg in the presence of 14 ng/ml of rHuIGF-II. | ||
Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2μm filtered concentrated solution in 20mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0 and 150mM NaCl. |
Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 4 (IGFBP-4) is a part of the insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP) family. IGFBP4 includes an IGFBP domain and a thyroglobulin type-I domain. IGFBP4 binds both insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) I and II. IGFBP-4 circulates in the plasma in both glycosylated and non-glycosylated forms. IGFBPs can either inhibit or enhance the biological activities of IGF, or act in an IGF independent manner. IGFBP-4 is consistently inhibits several cancer cells in vivo and in vitro, suggesting that it may function as an apoptotic factor. IGFBP4 is produced by all colon cancer cells. Binding of IGFBP-4 prolongs the half-life of the IGFs and changes their interaction with cell surface receptors.
