Scatter Factor (SF), Hepatopoietin (HPTA), HGF, HGFB, F-TCF, pHGF.
Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) is a multifunctional growth factor which regulates both cell growth and cell motility. It exerts a strong mitogenic effect on hepatocytes and primary epithelial cells. HGF synergizes with Interleukin-3and GM-CSFto stimulate colony formation of hematopoietic progenitor cells in vitro and may, therefore, also modulate hematopoiesis.
Hepatocyte Growth Factor porcine is extracted from pig liver.
The HGF is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Pig Liver
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
The sterile protein powder is lyophilized with no additives.
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized pHGF in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Lyophilized pHGF although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution pHGF 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.
Greater than 98.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
