CTGF/CCN2 Protein, Human, Recombinant (HEK293, His)

SKU: orb1961166

Description

Connective Tissue Growth Factor (CTGF), also known as CCN2, is a member of the CCN (CYR61/CTGF/NOV) family of secreted matricellular proteins. Like other CCN proteins, mature human CTGF consists of IGF-binding protein domain, a vWF-C domain, a TSP-1 domain, and a cysteine knot heparin-binding domain. CTGF has various biological functions, including cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, differentiation, and ECM production, and participates in the development of many organs under normal physiologic conditions. CTGF is pathologically viewed as a central mediator of tissue remodeling and fibrosis of various organs, including the lung, heart, liver, and kidney.

Images & Validation

• Application Notes:
  Reconstitute the lyophilized protein in distilled water. The product concentration should not be less than 100 μg/ml. Before opening, centrifuge the tube to collect powder at the bottom. After adding the reconstitution buffer, avoid vortexing or pipetting for mixing.
