MACS GMP Recombinant Human SCF，170-076-133，美天旎

Stem cell factor (SCF), also termed c-kit ligand, mast cell growth factor (MGF), or steel factor (SLF) is a hematopoietic growth factor important for the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells and progenitor cells. Besides its pivotal role in mast cell development, SCF acts as a potent mast cell chemoattractant and upregulates mast cell adhesion and migration.

MACS GMP Recombinant Human SCF is designed for ex vivo cell culture processing. No animal- or human-derived materials were used for the manufacture of this product, unless otherwise stated in the respective Certificate of Origin. The product is lyophilized without carrier protein or preservatives.

Biological activity

SCF signals through the c-kit receptor (CD117) and exists in two forms; cell surface bound SCF and soluble SCF. The secreted soluble form of SCF is produced by the proteolytic processing of the cell surface anchored precursor molecule. SCF is constitutively produced by endothelial cells and by stromal fibroblasts.

MACS GMP Recombinant Human SCF can be used for a variety of applications, including the expansion^2,3 and the viral transduction^4,5 of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells derived from bone marrow, peripheral blood cells, and cord blood, or the in vitro differentiation of megakaryocytes⁶.
