Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/mL is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.
Buffer
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS ( pH 7.4). Normally 8 % trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.
Stock

Stockage commentaire
-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt.,-80°C for 3-6 months after reconstitution.,2-8°C for 2-7 days after reconstitution.,Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
The expression and activation of EphA4 in the various cell types in a knee joint was upregulated upon an intraarticular injury. To determine if EphA4 signaling plays a role in osteoarthritis, we determined whether deficient EphA4 expression (in EphA4 knockout mice) or upregulation of the EphA4 signaling (with the EfnA4-fc treatment) would alter cellular functions of synoviocytes and articular chondrocytes. In synoviocytes, deficient EphA4 expression enhanced, whereas activation of the EphA4 signaling reduced, expression and secretion of key inflammatory cytokines and matrix metalloproteases.
Poids moléculaire
59.5 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 60-70 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.
