Further Information: | Human interleukin-3 (hIL-3) is a therapeutically important cytokine involved in the maturation and differentiation of various cells of the immune system. IL-3 predominantly produced by activated T lymphocytes, stimulates both endothelial cell proliferation and functional activation. Unlike other cytokines, IL-3 is a cytokine with a multilineage potential and broad spectrum of target cells and it plays a vital role in hematopoiesis. Due to its common receptor subunit, the action of IL-3 shows functional redundancy with other cytokines such as the granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor and IL-5. IL-3 has been successfully used in ameliorating radiation-induced bone marrow aplasia and similar conditions. |

Storage: | Lyophilized Human IL-3 protein, His tag (Animal-Free)should be stored desiccated below -20 C. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4 C between 2-7 days and for future use below -20 C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.118% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Usage: | Research use only |
