Description: Transforming growth factor a is upregulated in some human cancers. It is produced in macrophages, brain cells, and keratinocytes, and induces epithelial development. It is closely related to EGF, and can also bind to the EGF receptor with similar effects . TGF alpha stimulates neural cell proliferation in the adult injured brain. TG Falpha was cited in the 2001 NIH Stem Cell report to the U.S. Congress as promising evidence for the ability of adult stem cells to restore function in neurodegenerative disorders.
Immunogen: Amino acids 73-89 (CHSGYVGARCEHADLLA-human) were used as the immunogen for this TGF alpha antibody.
Storage: After reconstitution, the TGF alpha antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
