Add 4 mL of Triton X-100 solution (A), then adjust the pH to 6.5 with 4N NaOH. Fill up to 200 mL with deionized water. (Expires after 1 month at 2~8℃)G. Enzyme SolutionWeigh 25 mg of Glucose Dehydrogenase (GDH-FAD) and dissolve in chilled Enzyme Diluent (F). Enzyme Solution should be prepared so that the value of ΔOD/2minutes becomes in the range of 0.058±0.026.H. Mix SolutionMix 26 mL of Working Solution (B), 1 mL of NTB Solution (C), 2 mL of PMS Solution (D) and 1 mL of Substrate Solution (E). This solution should be kept in a light-proof tube to avoid exposure to light. (Expires 6 hours at 2~8℃)ProcedurePipette 3 mL of Mix Solution (H) into a disposable plastics cuvette (d=10 ~mm) and keep at 37±0.5 ℃ for 10 minutes. Then, pipette 0.1 mL of Enzyme Solution (E) into the cuvette and mix well immediately. Keep the reaction mixture at 37±0.5 ℃. Exactly at 3 minutes and 5 minutes after the addition of Enzyme Solution (E), measure the absorbances of the reaction mixture at 570 nm. (A3 and A5) As a blank, pipette Enzyme Diluent (F) into another disposable plastics cuvette (d=10 ~mm) instead of Enzyme Solution (E), and take the same procedure described above.

KGF expression is restricted to cells of mesenchymal origin. When secreted, it acts as a paracrine growth factor for nearby epithelial cells (1). KGF speeds wound healing by being dramatically upregulated in response to damage to skin or internal structures that results in high local concentrations of inflammatory mediators such as IL-1 and TNF-alpha. (2, 5). KGF promotes cell migration and invasion, and mediates melanocyte transfer to keratinocytes upon UVB radiation (6, 7). It has been used ectopically to avoid chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis in patients with hematological malignancies (1). Deletion of KGF affects kidney development, producing abnormally small ureteric buds and fewer nephrons (8). It also impedes hair follicle differentiation (9). The 194 amino acid (aa) KGF precursor contains a 31 aa signal sequence and, like all other FGFs, an ~120 aa beta -trefoil scaffold that includes receptor- and heparin-binding sites. KGF signals only through the IIIb splice form of the tyrosine kinase receptor, FGF R2 (FGF R2-IIIb/KGF R) (10). Receptor dimerization requires an octameric or larger heparin or heparin sulfate proteoglycan (11). FGF-10, also called KGF2, shares 51% aa identity and similar function to KGF, but shows more limited expression than KGF and uses an additional receptor, FGF R2-IIIc (12). Following receptor engagement, KGF is typically degraded, while FGF-10 is recycled (12). Mature human KGF, which is active across species, shares 98% aa sequence identity with bovine, equine, ovine and canine, 96% with mouse and porcine, and 92% with rat KGF, respectively... Read More |
