Eotaxin-2 (Eosinophil chemotactic protein 2), Rat Recombinant, E.coli

Eotaxins are broadly regarded as eosinophils high selectively chemoattractants. So far, three members have been discovered: eotaxin/CCL11, eotaxin-2/CCL24/MPIF-2 (myeloid progenitor inhibitory factor 2) and eotaxin-3/CCL26. CCL24 is constitutively expressed in fibroblasts, epithelial cells, macrophages. Among those chemokines, Eotaxin-2 is a potent chemoattractant for eosinophils, basophils and T helper type 2 (Th2) lymphocytes. The eotaxin-2/CCL24 receptor is expressed in human brain, skin, endothelium and macrophages. The functional of CCL24 is ligand for CC chemokine receptor 3 (CCR3), which is preferentially expressed on eosinophils. After identification of eotaxin/CCL11 as a relatively selective chemokine for eosinophils, eotaxin-2/CCL24 was cloned and showed chemotactic activity for eosinophils in a range similar to that of eotaxin/CCL11. Furthermore, Inhibition of eotaxin-2 by monoclonal antibodies has a significant protective effect in adjuvant arthritis.
Description CCL24 Rat Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 93 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 10.2kDa.
The CCL24 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Purity >96% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Formulation Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in 1×PBS, pH 7.4.
Stability The lyophilized form of the protein is stable at room temperature for 3 weeks and at -20°C for at least 2 years from the date of receipt. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4°C for no more than 7 days. The protein is stable at -20°C for six months. For long term storage, please store at -80°C and the addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended. Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Biological Activity Determined by its ability to chemoattract murine lymphocytes using a concentration range of 10-100ng/ml corresponding to a Specific Activity of 10,000-100,000IU/mg.
Solubility It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized CCL24 Rat Recombinant in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Usage LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. Not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
