Description : | Activins are homodimers or heterodimers of the various β subunit isoforms, belonging to the TGFβ family. Mature Activin A has two 116 amino acids residues βA subunits (βA-βA). Activin exhibits a wide range of biological activities, including mesoderm induction, neural cell differentiation, bone remodelling, haematopoiesis, and reproductive physiology. Activins plays a key role in the production and regulation of hormones such as FSH, LH, GnRH and ACTH. Cells known to express Activin A include fibroblasts, endothelial cells, hepatocytes, vascular smooth muscle cells, macrophages, keratinocytes, osteoclasts, bone marrow monocytes, prostatic epithelium, neurons, chondrocytes, osteoblasts, Leydig cells, Sertoli cells, and ovarian granulosa cells.As with other members of the super-family, Activins interact with two types of cell surface trans-membrane receptors (Types I and II) which have intrinsic serine/threonine kinase activities in their cytoplasmic domains, Activin type 1 receptors, ACVR1, ACVR1B, ACVR1C and Activin type 2 receptors, ACVR2A, ACVR2B. The biological activity of Activin A can be neutralized by inhibins and by the diffusible TGF-B antagonist, Follistatin. |
Form : | Recombinant human Activin is lyophilized from a Tris HCl 0.05M buffer at pH 7.4. |

Endotoxin : | < 0.04="" eu/μg="" protein="" (lal=""> |
Purity : | >97% by SDS-PAGE gel |
Storage : | This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8o C for short term, long storage it should be kept at -20oC. Reconstituted protein should be stored in working aliquots at –20°C. Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. |
Reconstitution : | Centrifuge vial before opening. Lyophilized protein should be reconstituted in water to a concentration of 50 ng/μl. Due to the protein nature, dimmers and multimers may be observed. At higher concentration the solubility may be reduced and multimers generated. Optimal concentration should be determined for specific application and cell lines. |
