Catalog No.

Featured Products
Murine CCL12 is belonging to the CC chemokine family. It shows 66 % amino acid sequence identity to human MCP-1. CCL12 has been shown to be a potent chemoattractant for monocytes and lymphocytes but not neutrophils. At high concentrations, it will also chemoattract eosinophils. CCL12 can induce a calcium flux in human HEK-293 cells transfected with murine CCR2, but can not induce a calcium flux in HEK-293 cells transfected with CCR1, CCR3, or CCR5. That shows the functional receptor of CCL12 is CCR2.

| Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4. |
| 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. |
