Recombinant Human PDGF-BB
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is an important regulator of cell growth, proliferation, and angiogenesis. PDGF synthesis is induced by IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α, TGF-β, and EGF signaling. PDGF functions as a mitogenic growth hormone on cells of mesenchymal lineage, such as smooth muscle and glial cells. PDGF is also stored in the alpha-granules of platelets and is released upon adherence to traumatized tissues. PDGF is a dimeric glycoprotein formed by two A chains (AA), two B chains (BB), or as a heterodimer with an A and a B chain (AB). The PDGF dimer binds the cell surface receptor tyrosine kinases PDGFR-α and PDGFR-β.

SDS-PAGE Showing a Prominent Band at 12.4 kDa and 24.9 kDa
Figure 1. rh PDGF-BB (1 μg) was resolved with SDS-PAGE under non-reducing (NR) and reducing (R) conditions and visualized by InstantBlue staining showing a single prominent band at 12.4 kDa (R) and 24.9 kDa (NR).*
*Predicted MW is 12.4 kDa and 24.9 kDa, but runs on SDS-PAGE at ~15 kDa (R) and ~30 kDa (NR)
