The human CD200 R1 cDNA encodes a 325 Purity:>95%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining.Description:CD200 R1, also known as OX-2 receptor, is a 90 kDa transmembrane protein in the immunoglobulin superfamily and is important in the regulation of myeloid cell activity. The human CD200 R1 cDNA encodes a 325 amino acid (aa) precursor that includes a 28 aa signal sequence, a 215 aa extracellular domain (ECD), a 21 aa transmembrane segment, and a 61 aa cytoplasmic domain. The ECD is composed of one Ig-like V-type domain and one Ig-like C2-type domain. Within the ECD, human CD200 R1 shares 56% aa sequence identity with both mouse and rat CD200 R1. Alternate splicing of the human CD200 R1 mRNA generates four isoforms, two of which are truncated in the Ig-C2 domain and are likely secreted. In human, a separate CD200 RL gene encodes a protein that shares 81% ECD aa identity with CD200 R1. In mouse, at least four genes for CD200 R1-like molecules have been described. CD200 R1 expression is restricted primarily to mast cells, basophils, macrophages, and dendritic cells, while its ligand, CD200, is widely distributed. Disruption of this receptor-ligand system by knockout of the CD200 gene in mice leads to increased macrophage number and activation and predisposition to autoimmune disorders. Association of CD200 with CD200 R1 takes place between their respective N-terminal Ig-like domains. The capacity of CD200 R1-like molecules to interact with CD200 is controversial. CD200 R1 propagates inhibitory signals despite lacking a cytoplasmic ITIM (immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif). CD200 R1-like molecules, in contrast, are potentially activating receptors by means of their association with DAP12. CD200R1 signaling inhibits the expression of proinflammatory molecules including TNFs, IFNs, and inducible nitric oxide synthase in response to selected stimuli, which implicate that CD200/CD200R1 inhibitory signaling pathway plays a prominent role in limiting inflammation in a wide range of inflammatory diseases. Furthermore, the CD200/CD200R inhibitory signaling constitutes one of the most suitable endogenous immunoregulatory molecule candidate to restore the immune suppressive status of the CNS altered in chronic neuroinflammatory situations...

(1989) from the culture supernatant of embryonic lung fibroblasts, which is a member of the FGF family, namely FGF-7. KGF is an effective epithelial-specific growth factor secreted by mesenchymal cells and distributed in epithelial cells. Its mitotic activity is mainly manifested in keratinocytes, which can specifically promote the proliferation, migration and differentiation of epithelial cells. It is closely related to organ development, wound repair, tumor genesis and immune reconstruction.Activity definition: The ED50 value is less than 1.0 ng/ml, that is, the corresponding activity unit is greater than or equal to 1 x 10*6 units/mg, as determined by the proliferation method of cultured MCF-7 cells...

Description: Neuron specific enolase (NSE), also known as ENO2 or gamma-enolase, is a dimeric, Mg2+-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the dehydration of 2-phospho-D glycate (PGA) to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) in the Purity:>95%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining. Description: Neuron specific enolase (NSE), also known as ENO2 or gamma-enolase, is a dimeric, Mg2+-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the dehydration of 2-phospho-D glycate (PGA) to phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) in the glycolytic pathway and catalyzes the reverse reaction in gluconeogenesis. There are three major isozymes of enolase expressed in selective vertebrate tissues from separate genes: alpha (ENO1), beta (ENO3), and gamma (ENO2). NSE is a highly expressed, specific neuron isozyme making it a useful marker for tumors derived from neuronal cells. Neuron-specific enolase is implicated as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in numerous diseases including early small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, multiple myeloma, traumatic brain injury, acute spinal cord injury, acute ischemic stroke, and post-concussion symptoms. NSE expression and activity are increased in neuronal and glial activation and injury, risk factors implicated in neurodegenerative disease. Elevation of NSE promotes glycolysis, proliferation, activation and migration through its C-terminus to activate PI3K and MAPK signal transduction pathways while inhibition of enolase has been shown to attenuate inflammatory events. NSE can be regulated through cleavage of the C-termini by cathepsin X or inhibited directly by antibiotic SF2312. Inhibition has been proposed as a therapeutic strategy in cancer... Read More | Background:Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha ), also known as cachectin and TNFSF2, is the prototypic ligand of the TNF superfamily. It is a pleiotropic molecule that plays a central role in inflammation, immune system development, apoptosis, and lipid metabolism. Rat TNF-alpha consisitsBackground:Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha ), also known as cachectin and TNFSF2, is the prototypic ligand of the TNF superfamily. It is a pleiotropic molecule that plays a central role in inflammation, immune system development, apoptosis, and lipid metabolism. Rat TNF-alpha consisits of a 35 amino acid (aa) cytoplasmic domain, a 21 aa transmembrane segment, and a 179 aa extracellular domain (ECD). Within the ECD, rat TNF-alpha shares 94% aa sequence identity with mouse and 69%-76% with bovine, canine, cotton rat, equine, feline, human, porcine, and rhesus TNF-alpha. TNF-alpha is produced by a wide variety of immune, epithelial, endothelial, and tumor cells. TNF-alpha is assembled intracellularly to form a noncovalently linked homotrimer which is expressed on the cell surface. Cell surface TNF-alpha can induce the lysis of neighboring tumor cells and virus infected cells, and it can generate its own downstream cell signaling following ligation by soluble TNFR I. Shedding of membrane bound TNF-alpha by TACE/ADAM17 releases the bioactive cytokine, a 55 kDa soluble trimer of the TNF-alpha extracellular domain. TNF-alpha binds the ubiquitous 55-60 kDa TNF RI and the hematopoietic cell-restricted 80 kDa TNF RII, both of which are also expressed as homotrimers. Both type I and type II receptors bind TNF-alpha with comparable affinity, although only TNF RI contains a cytoplasmic death domain which triggers the activation of apoptosis. Soluble forms of both types of receptors are released and can neutralize the biological activity of TNF-alpha. Post-translational modificationsThe soluble form derives from the membrane form by proteolytic processing.The membrane form, but not the soluble form, is phosphorylated on serine residues.Dephosphorylation of the membrane form occurs by binding to soluble TNFRSF1A/TNFR1.O-glycosylated; glycans contain galactose, N-acetylgalactosamine and N-acetylneuraminic acid...
