Other Proteins

Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PDGF) is a mitogenic peptide growth hormone carried in the alpha-granules of platelets and is released when platelets adhere to traumatized tissues. Connective tissue cells near the traumatized region respond by initiating the process of replication. The synthesis of PDGF can be induced by IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α, TGF-β and EGF. Recombinant human PDGF-BB is a non-glycosylated, disulfide-linked homodimer, containing two 109 amino acid chains, with a total molecular weight of 24.3 kDa.

Procalcitonin is a precursor of the peptide hormone called calcitonin. Procalcitonin is mainly produced by the C cells of the thyroid and certain endocrine cells of the lung. Under normal expression conditions, procalcitonin is immediately cleaved into three specific fragments, an N terminal residue, calcitonin and katacalcin. Levels of unprocessed procalcitonin have been shown to rise significantly after bacterial infection, trauma or shock. Recombinant human Procalcitonin is a non-glycosylated protein, containing 116 amino acids, with a molecular weight of 12.8 kDa.

Prolactin (PRL) is a hormone that is made and secreted by the pituitary gland and acts in an endocrine, paracrine and autocrine manner. The prolactin receptor is expressed on many cell types and is linked to JAK kinase signaling pathways. PRL’s primary function is to regulate lactation, but it is known to have many other regulation functions. These functions include roles in the immune system, cell growth, apoptosis, and differentiation. Recombinant human Prolactin is a non-glycosylated protein, containing 200 amino acids, with a molecular weight of 23 kDa.

Resistin-Like Molecule-beta (RELM- β) is a member of a recently identified family of secreted proteins containing conserved cysteines in their C terminus. The RELM family consists of Resistin (also called FIZZ3), RELM-α (FIZZ1), and RELM-γ. Only Resistin and RELM-β were found in humans whereas all four RELM family members have been identified in rodents. Recombinant human RELM-β is a non-glycosylated, disulfide-linked homodimer, containing two 89 amino acid chains, with a total molecular weight of 19 kDa.

Resistin is a peptide hormone belonging to the class of cysteine-rich secreted proteins which is termed the RELM family and is also described as ADSF (Adipose Tissue-Specific Secretory Factor) and FIZZ3 (Found in Inflammatory Zone). Resistin is produced by adipocytes and may be an important link between obesity and insulin resistance. Recombinant human Resistin is a disulfide-linked homodimer, containing two 93 amino acid chains , with a total molecular weight of 20 kDa.
