Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is a member of the CSF family of glycoproteins that regulate hematopoietic cell proliferation, differentiation, and function. It is a key cytokine involved in the production of neutrophils and the stimulation of granulocyte colony formation from hematopoietic progenitor cells (Metcalf and Nicola). G-CSF causes a range of effects including a transient reduction of SDF-1 expression (Petit et al.), the activation of metalloproteases that cleave VCAM-1 (Levesque et al.), and the release of norepinephrine from the sympathetic nervous system (Katayama et al.), leading to the release or mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells from the bone marrow into the periphery. The G-CSF receptor is expressed on a variety of hematopoietic cells, including myeloid-committed progenitor cells, neutrophils, granulocytes, and monocytes. In addition to hematopoietic cells, G-CSF is also expressed in cardiomyocytes, neuronal cells, mesothelial cells, and endothelial cells. Mouse G-CSF was first purified from cultures of the WEHI-3B myelomonocytic leukemia cell line as the inducer of the terminal differentiation of WEHI-3B and other myeloid leukemia cell lines (Nicola et al.). It was later cloned in monkey COS cells from a cDNA library prepared with mRNA derived from mouse fibrosarcoma NFSA cells that produce G-CSF constitutively (Tsuchiya et al.). Binding of G-CSF to its receptor leads to activation of the JAK/STAT, MAPK, PI3K, and AKT signal transduction pathways.

Fibroblast growth factor 8B (FGF-8B) is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family and is an isoform of FGF-8. Cytokines in the FGF family possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities (Folkman andamp; Klagsbrun; Kimelman andamp; Kirschner) and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, and apoptosis (Folkman andamp; Klagsbrun; Klagsbrun; Rifkin andamp; Moscatelli). FGF-8B signals through FGF receptors (FGFRs) to activate PI3K and MAPK pathways. FGF-8B is broadly associated with mitogenic and cell survival activities, and regulates gastrulation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and later on mesenchymal to epithelial differentiation during embryonic development. FGF-8B has also been found in peripheral blood leukocytes and healthy bone marrow samples (Mattila andamp; Härkönen). FGF-8B has mitogenic effects on somatic cells in the germinal epithelium and is expressed in adult mouse ovarian cells and tissues, which suggests that it regulates maturation of oocytes and seminiferous epithelium in testis (Valve et al.).

Fibroblast growth factor 7 (FGF-7) is a member of the FGF family, and acts exclusively through a subset of FGF receptor isoforms expressed predominantly by epithelial cells (Finch and Rubin). FGF-7 seems to act specifically on epithelial cells and stimulates proliferation, migration, and differentiation of these cells, and also participates in epithelial protection and repair both in vitro and in vivo (Finch and Rubin; Werner). In contrast, FGF-7 is produced solely by cells of mesenchymal origin, and functions as a paracrine mediator of mesenchymal-epithelial communication (Rubin et al.). FGF-7 has also been shown to supplement several wound-healing properties of bioengineered skin (Erdag et al.) and to induce autophagy in human keratinocytes (Belleudi et al.). Additionally, FGF-7 has a role in pluripotent stem cell differentiation to endodermal pancreatic-like insulin-producing cells and thymic epithelial cells (Inami et al.; Niu et al.).

Interleukin 13 (IL-13) is a type I cytokine, and signals through type I cytokine receptors to activate JAK/STAT and IRS-1/IRS-2 pathways. IL-13 is produced by T cells and innate lymphoid cells (Pulendran and Artis) and it inhibits production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, prostaglandins, and reactive oxygen and nitrogen species by monocytes and macrophages (Hershey). Unlike human B cells, IL-13 has no effect on mouse B cell development and function. IL-13 promotes eosinophil survival, activation, and recruitment, and also activates mast cells (Hershey). IL-13 regulates gastrointestinal parasite expulsion, airway hyperresponsiveness, allergic inflammation, tissue eosinophilia, goblet cell hyperplasia, intracellular parasitism, tissue remodeling, tumor cell growth, and fibrosis. IL-13 induces hypercontractility of smooth muscles by directly acting on the muscle cells as well as the enteric nerves (Wynn).

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) promotes the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic progenitor cells and the generation of neutrophils, eosinophils, and macrophages. In synergy with other cytokines such as stem cell factor, IL-3, erythropoietin, and thrombopoietin, it also stimulates erythroid and megakaryocyte progenitor cells (Barreda et al.). GM-CSF was first purified from the culture of mouse lung tissue after lipopolysaccharide treatment. GM-CSF is produced by multiple cell types, including stromal cells, Paneth cells, macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, fibroblasts, chondrocytes, and Th1 and Th17 cells (Francisco-Cruz et al.). The receptor for GM-CSF (GM-CSFR) is composed of two subunits: the cytokine-specific α subunit (GMRα; CD116) and the common subunit βc (CD131) shared with IL-3 and IL-5 receptors (Broughton et al.). GM-CSFR is expressed on hematopoietic cells, including progenitor cells and immune cells, as well as non-hematopoietic cells. GM-CSF is able to stimulate the development of DCs that ingest, process, and present antigens to the immune system (Francisco-Cruz et al.).

Stimulating T cells with HPV16 (E6) Peptide Pool releases downstream cytokines and upregulates activation markers, enabling antigen-specific T cells to be detected or isolated for analysis. HPV16 (E6) Peptide Pool is a lyophilised mixture of 37 peptides from the E6 protein of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16). The pool consists of 15-mer peptides with 11-amino-acid overlaps that cover amino acids 1 to 158 on protein E6. E6 binds to the tumor suppressor protein p53 and stimulates its degradation (Scheffner et al.; Werness et al. ), which is thought to cause an increase in spontaneous mutagenesis in host cells (Havre et al.). E6 together with E7 demonstrated the ability to immortalize human keratinocytes in vitro, which likely has significance for HPVs oncogenic potential (Hawley-Nelson et al.). Viral peptide pools are useful for a broad range of applications, including vaccine development, immunological research, and diagnostic assay development.

Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 4 (IGFBP-4) inhibits the actions of IGF-I and IGF-II. The distribution of IGFBP-4 in tissues is dependent on its glycosylation state, however it preferentially targets connective tissue (Firth and Baxter; Qin et al.). IGFBP-4 is also produced in liver, adrenal glands, Leydig cells, developing embryos, spinal cord, and thymic cortex. IGFBP-4 inhibits WNT/β-catenin signaling, which downregulates prostate cancer proliferation (Zhu et al.). In vitro studies suggest that IGFBP-4 inhibits proliferation of neuroblastoma and glioma, while promoting bone loss in osteosarcoma and multiple myeloma (Durai et al.).

Heregulin-beta 1 also known as neuregulin-1 (NRG-1) is a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family of growth factors and acts as a ligand for ErbB family receptor tyrosine kinases (Britsch et al.). Heregulin/neuregulin is a family of structurally related polypeptide growth factors derived from alternatively spliced genes (NRG1, NRG2, NRG3, and NRG4). Heregulin-beta 1 plays an important role during the development of the nervous system, heart, and mammary glands (Britsch). Heregulin-beta 1 is expressed in neuronal cells, and modulates cell growth and differentiation of the cells during development and wound healing (Mei and Xiong). It has been implicated through in vivo and in vitro studies that heregulin-beta 1/ErbB signaling is crucial for multiple aspects of cardiovascular development and protects the heart from ischemic injury (Odiete et al.). Heregulin-beta 1 also promotes invasiveness and metastasis of breast cancer cells (Hutcheson et al.). It has also been shown that heregulin-beta 1 has a role in the growth and maintenance of human embryonic stem cells (Wang et al.).

Interleukin 34 (IL-34) is well known for its ability to induce the formation of colony-forming unit macrophages in human bone marrow cell cultures (Foucher et al.; Wei et al.). This dimeric glycoprotein is a member of the short-chain helical hematopoietic cytokine family (Baghdadi et al.; Foucher et al.), and exists in two isoforms that differ by a single glutamine (Chen et al.; Foucher et al; Wei et al.). IL-34 interacts with M-CSF to trigger tyrosine phosphorylation of the receptor and ERK1/2 pathways. (Wang et al.; Wei et al.). It is expressed in many tissues (heart, brain, lung, liver, kidney, thymus, testes, ovary, small intestine, prostate, and colon), with the highest expression in the spleen. In combination with RANKL, IL-34 induces osteoclast differentiation (Chen et al.; Foucher et al.). IL-34 expression is decreased in Alzheimer’s disease and atopic dermatitis, while high levels of IL-34 are found in many types of cancer correlated with poor prognosis, chronic heart failure or coronary artery disease, inflammatory bowel disease, influenza A infection, during acute liver transplant rejection or in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and with rheumatoid arthritis (Baghdadi et al.). It is therefore a possible pharmacological target for treating bone or inflammatory diseases (Chen et al.). This protein contains a His-residue tag at the carboxyl end of the polypeptide chain, and the protein was purified as a homodimer consisting of 39 kDa monomers (Lin et al.).

Modulate prostaglandin metabolism with 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH). 15-PGDH catalyses the reversible oxidation of the 15-hydroxyl group in prostaglandins, resulting in inactivated metabolites (Ensor and Tai), it can act on a variety of prostaglandins as substrates in a NAD+ dependent manner (Cho et al.). As prostaglandins can have a range of effects on cellular processes, 15-PGDH is of considerable importance in drug development. In vitro and in vivo studies suggest 15-PGDH has tumor suppressive activity and is downregulated in certain cancers (Na et al.).15-PGDH belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family; its primary structure indicates 20% homology with other SDRs, with some conserved amino acid residues (Krook et al.). This protein contains a His-residue tag at the carboxyl end of the polypeptide chain. For consistency and reproducibility across your applications, apo M from STEMCELL comes lyophilised with ≥89% purity.

Interleukin 5 (IL-5) is a member of the short-chain 4-α-helical bundle subset of hematopoietic cytokines. It binds to the specific α receptor, which in turn recruits the common β receptor that initiates signaling via JAK/STAT and MAPK pathways. IL-5 is produced by Th2 cells, eosinophils, activated mast cells, and ILC2 cells. IL-5 affects the differentiation, activation, and survival of eosinophils, thus playing an important role in allergic inflammation, asthma, and parasite immunity. Stimulation of eosinophils with IL-5 leads to their activation, upregulation of CD11b expression, and inhibition of apoptosis (Shearer).
