Cat. No.	Z200055
Name	Recombinant Mouse FLT3 Ligand (FLT3LG)
Description	FLT-3 ligand promotes long-term expansion and differentiation of human pro-B cells in the presence of IL-7 or in combination of IL-7 and IL-3. The human flt-3 ligand also stimulates the proliferation of cells expressing murine flt-3 receptors.n combination with SCF and IL-3 flt-3 ligand can cause expansion of cells with the marker spectrum CD34(+) CD38(-). Alone, flt-3 ligand supports the survival of precursors in the lineage of blood-forming cells such as CFU-GM, CFU-GEMM, and the very primitive high proliferative potential colony-forming cells, HPP-CFC. flt-3 ligand only has marginal effects on progenitors for erythroid cells and megakaryocytes.

Appearance	Lyophilized Powder
Molecular Weight	19 kDa
Endotoxin Level	<1.0 EU/µg of recombinant protein as determined by the LAL method.
Purity	>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE
Formulation	Recombinant FLT-3 Ligand was lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution with 50mM Tris,100mM NaCl, pH 8.5.
Function	The ED(50) was determined by the dose-dependent proliferation of human AML5 cells was found to be in the range of 10.0 ng/mL.
Reconstitution	A quick spin of the vial followed by reconstitution in distilled water to a concentration not less than 0.1 mg/mL. This solution can then be diluted into other buffers.
Storage	The lyophilized protein is stable for at least one year from date of receipt at -70°C. Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at 2° - 8°C for one month, or at -20°C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Usage	For research use only. Not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
Material Citation	If use of this material results in a scientific publication, please cite the material in the following manner: Applied Biological Materials Inc, Cat. No. Z200055

How do I choose the right growth factor for my experiment?

Cell type: Different cells respond to different growth factors. Choose a growth factor that promotes the growth or differentiation of your target cell type.
Desired outcome: Whether you are studying proliferation, differentiation, or survival, different growth factors will promote different cellular behaviors.
Concentration and formulation: Different experiments may require varying concentrations of growth factors.
