Thrombopoietin/THPO Recombinant Protein | THPO recombinant protein
Recombinant Human Thrombopoietin/THPO Protein
After reconstitution, the protein solution is stable at -20 degree C for 3 months, at 2-8 degree C for up to 1 week.
Background: Thrombopoietin (TPO or THPO), also known as myeloproliferative leukemia virus ligand (c-Mpl), is a hematopoietic growth factor belonging to the EPO/TPO family. Megakaryocytopoiesis is the cellular development process that leads to platelet production. TPO is necessary for megakaryocyte proliferation and maturation, as well as for thrombopoiesis. TPO is the ligand for MLP/C_MPL, the product of myeloproliferative leukemia virus oncogene. Mutations in TPO gene are the cause of thrombocythemia.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
THPO: Lineage-specific cytokine affecting the proliferation and maturation of megakaryocytes from their committed progenitor cells. It acts at a late stage of megakaryocyte development. It may be the major physiological regulator of circulating platelets. Defects in THPO are the cause of thrombocythemia type 1 (THCYT1). A myeloproliferative disorder characterized by elevated platelet levels due to sustained proliferation of megakaryocytes, and frequently lead to thrombotic and haemorrhagic complications. Belongs to the EPO/TPO family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The THPO thpo (Catalog #AAA9144010) is a Recombinant Protein produced from HEK293 cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Thrombopoietin/THPO, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
