HGF Protein, Human (CHO) is a cytokine binding to Met tyrosine kinase receptor, and exhibits biological activities.

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) exhibits biological activities through the Met tyrosine kinase receptor. HGF plays a role in the regeneration and protection from injury and pathology in various tissues. Genetic disruption of Met in renal cells demonstrates that the HGF-Met pathway plays a role in the proliferation, morphogenesis, and survival of renal cells^[1].

The ED₅₀ is <10 ng/mL as measured by 4MBr5 cells, corresponding to a specific activity of >1 × 10⁵ units/mg.

Single chain:88-90kDa
Alpha chain:59-61kDa
Beta chain:30-34kDa

Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Lyophilized powder

Lyophilized after extensive dialysis against PBS.

<0.2 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Stored at -20°C. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer. It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
