Human Oncostatin M Recombinant
Categories: HematopoietinsIL-6 gp130 familyRecombinant Human Cytokines$70.00 – $4,700.00
Description
Accession
P13725
Source
Optimized DNA sequence encoding Human Oncostatin-M mature chain was expressed in Escherichia Coli.
Molecular weight
Native human Oncostatin-M is generated by the proteolytic removal of the signal peptide and propeptide, this molecule has a calculated molecular mass of approximately 26 kDa. Recombinant Oncostatin-M is a monomer protein consisting of 228 amino acid residue subunits, and migrates as an approximately 26 kDa protein under reducing conditions in SDS-PAGE.
Purity
>95%, as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Biological Activity
The ED(50) was determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of the proliferation off human TF-1 cells is ≤3 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of ≥2 x units/mg.

Endotoxin
Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method. Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/µg(1EU/µg).
Presentation
Recombinant Oncostatin M was lyophilized from a 0.2μm filtered concentrated (1mg/ml) PBS solution, pH7.0.
Reconstitution
A quick spin of the vial followed by reconstitution in distilled water to a concentration not less than 0.1 mg/mL. This solution can then be diluted into other buffers.
Storage
The lyophilized protein is stable for at least years from date of receipt at -20° C. Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at2° -8° C for one month, or at -20° C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Methods
Hepatogenic differentiation
- Cells were seeded at a concentration of 5000 cells/cm2 on tissue culture plastic plates and coverslips coated with Matrigel and cultured in high glucose DMEM supplemented with 1% penicillin/streptomycin , 2 mM L-Glutamine and 10% FBS for 3 days.
- The media were then changed to high glucose DMEM supplemented with 15% FBS, 1% penicillin/streptomycin, 2 mM L-glutamine, 300 µM monothioglycerol , 20 ng/ml hepatocyte growth factor , 10 ng/ml oncostatin M , 10−7 dexamethasone , 100 ng/ml FGF4 and 1X ITS (insulin, transferrin, selenium).
- The cells were allowed to differentiate for 21 days and then fixed and stored in PBS for immunofluorescence.
- The differentiation media were collected and analysed for the presence of urea secreted by the differentiated cells.
- Urea was subsequently measured using the urea/ammonia determination kit (R-Biopharm AG, Darmstadt, Germany) according to the manufacturers instructions, with positive control being urea (as per manufacturer's instructions) and…
Expressions of hepatic functional genes in differentiated HPCs.
- Spheroid formation was induced by hanging drop culture in the presence or absence of OSM.
Induction of mature hepatocytic functional genes by spheroid formation
- Colonies derived from CD13highCD133+ cells were passaged and trypsinized with 0.05% trypsin-EDTA, washed in DMEM containing 10% FBS, and counted.
- The culture medium for spheroid formation was MEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 1× nonessential amino acids, 1× penicillin streptomycin glutamine, and 10−7 M dexamethasone, with or without 20 ng/ml recombinant human OSM .
- Individual drops (40 µl) containing 1×104 cells were plated on the inside of lids of 100-mm dishes containing PBS (to avoid desiccation).
- After 3 days of culture, the spheroids were collected and analyzed.
