Physical Appearance | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH7.4. |
Endotoxin | Less than 1EU/μg of rHuIL-9 as determined by LAL method. |
Reconstitution | We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1% BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0mg/ml. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤-20℃. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions. |
Category | Cytokine |
Background | Interleukin-9 (IL-9) is encoded by the IL9 gene and produced by T-cells and specifically by CD4+ helper cells. IL-9 was originally identified as a cytokine found in the conditioned medium of a human T cell leukemia virus type I (HTLVI) transformed T cell line. It functions through the IL-9 receptor, which activates different signal transducer and activator (STAT) proteins and thus connects this cytokine to various biological processes. IL-9 can support the growth of IL-2 independent and IL-4 independent helper T-cells. Human IL-9 has approximately 56% amino acid sequence identity with murine IL-9. The gene encoding this cytokine has been identified as a candidate gene for asthma. Genetic studies on a mouse model of asthma demonstrated that this cytokine is a determining factor in the pathogenesis of bronchial hyperresponsiveness. |

保存条件:
-20℃或更低温度保存,至少一年有效。由于蛋白的每次冻融均会引起部分失活,所以首次配制成相应浓度的储存液后(请根据产品简介中Reconstitution一栏的信息配制储存液),须分装后-20℃或更低温度冻存,以避免反复冻融。
注意事项:
由于有些塑料管壁对某些蛋白有较强的吸附作用,溶液中的蛋白很容易粘附在管壁上,并且粘附后的蛋白很难与管壁分离。而载体蛋白(Carrier protein,如0.1% BSA等)的主要作用是预先封闭塑料管壁上的蛋白结合位点,使细胞因子或重组蛋白不会粘附于管壁。所以一定要使用产品简介中Reconstitution一栏的信息配制储存液。
