Reconstitution Reconstitute the lyophilized recombinant Human Cardiotrophin-1 (CHO-expressed) (rHuCT-1) to 100 μg/mL using ddH2O or PBS. Storage & Stability Lyophilized recombinant Human Cardiotrophin-1 (CHO-expressed) (rHuCT-1) is 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. Shipping Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere. Background Cardiotrophin (CT)-1 belongs to the IL-6 family of cytokines[1]. Cardiotrophin-1 (CT1) plays an important role in the differentiation, development, and survival of neural stem cells. CT1 plays a key role in neural tissue development and has survival-promoting, anti-apoptotic effects in neural injury or death. CT1 induces a phenotypic switch in sympathetic neurons and promotes the survival of dopaminergic neurons from the central nervous system and ciliary neurons from the periphery[2]. |
