Recombinant Human Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-3/CCL7
Catalog No.
P1462
Featured Products
Human CCL7, also known as monocyte chemotactic protein 3 (MCP-3), is belonging to the CC chemokine family. MCP-3 has two homogeneous MCP-1 (CCL2) and MCP-2 (CCL8). These three MCPs were found by IL-1-beta triggered human MG-63 osteosarcoma cells. CCL7 shares 71 % and 58 % a.a. sequence identity with MCP-1 and MCP-2, respectively. CCL7 has chemotactic function for monocytes and eosinophils, but not for neutrophils. In addition, it can also chemoattract activated NK cells.

| Appearance | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
| Stability & Storage | Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. - 12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70 °C as supplied. - 1 month, 2 to 8 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution. - 3 months, -20 to -70 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution. |
| Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in 20 mM PB, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl. |
| Reconstitution | We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions. |
| Biological Activity | Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The biologically active determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human monocytes is in a concentration range of 10-100 ng/ml. |
| Shipping Condition | Gel pack. |
| Handling | Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. |
| Usage | For Research Use Only! Not to be used in humans. |
