Appearance Lyophilized powder. Formulation Lyophilized after extensive dialysis against PBS. Endotoxin Level <0.2 EU/μg, determined by LAL method. Reconstitution Reconstitute the lyophilized recombinant Human Indian hedgehog protein (rHuIHH) to 100 μg/mL using ddH2O or PBS. Storage & Stability Lyophilized recombinant Human Indian hedgehog protein (rHuIHH) 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 Indian hedgehog (Ihh), which encodes amember of the Hedgehog family of signaling factors, is initially expressed in chondrocytes of the early cartilaginous skeletal elements[1]. Indian Hedgehog is an antagonist of Wnt signaling in colonic epithelial cell differentiation[2]. Ihh is involved in chondrocyte differentiation, proliferation and maturation especially during endochondral ossification. It regulates its effects by feedback control of parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP) [3]. |
