Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized SCF in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. | ||
Stability | Lyophilized rat SCF although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C . Upon reconstitution SCF should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C .For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. | ||
Biological Activity | The ED50 is determined by the dose-dependant stimulation of the proliferation of human TF-1 cells which is < 10 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 100,000units/mg. | ||
Formulation | Lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in water containing 0.02% NaHCO3. |
Stem cell factor / KIT ligand (SCF) is a cytokine which binds CD117 (c-Kit). SCF is also known as "steel factor" or "c-kit ligand". SCF exists in two forms, cell surface bound SCF and soluble (or free) SCF. Soluble SCF is produced by the cleavage of surface bound SCF by metalloproteases.SCF is a growth factor important for the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells and other hematopoietic progenitor cells. One of its roles is to change the BFU-E (burst-forming unit-erythroid) cells, which are the earliest erythrocyte precursors in the erythrocytic series, into the CFU-E (colony-forming unit-erythroid).
The ED50 is determined by the dose-dependant stimulation of the proliferation of human TF-1 cells which is < 10 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 100,000units/mg.
