Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (LCN2) is a secreted protein that belongs to the kallikrein superfamily. This protein is released from injured renal tubular cells after various destructive stimuli and has been described by nephrologists as one of the most promising biomarkers of afferent acute kidney injury (AKI). Recent evidence also suggests its role as a biomarker in various other renal and non-renal diseases. In addition, recent studies seem to indicate that this factor may also be involved in the development and progression of chronic kidney disease.NGAL is the first known mammalian protein that specifically binds organic molecules called glycosides, which are high-affinity iron chelators.NGAL was first known as an antimicrobial factor of natural immunity and an acute phase protein, and is currently one of the most interesting and enigmatic proteins. As an intracellular iron carrier and protector of MMP9 from proteolysis, NGAL has a significant pro-tumor effect and has been observed in different human tumors (e.g. breast, stomach, esophagus, brain). In thyroid cancer, NGAL is strongly induced by NF-kB, an important factor involved in the link between tumor growth and chronic inflammation and tumor development. Thus, Lipocalin-2 (LCN2/NGAL) has been implicated in various processes, including cell differentiation, proliferation, survival, and morphogenesis.

| Recombinant Human HGF (CHO-expressed)
Recombinant human Hepatocyte Growth Factor (rhHGF) , also known as hepatopoietin-A and scatter factor, is a pleiotropic mitogen belonging to the peptidase S1 family (plasminogen subfamily). It is produced by mesenchymal cells and acts on epithelial cells, endothelial cells and haemopoietic progenitor cells. |
| Recombinant Human RIPK3 Protein (E. coli, N-His)
RIPK3 is a kinase that controls necroptosis and apoptosis. In necroptosis, activated by TNF-α and ZBP1, RIPK3 phosphorylates MLKL, leading to membrane damage. Necroptosis is dependent on receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3), a protein shown to play an important role in experimental models of critical illness. RIPK3 promotes kidney tubular injury via mitochondrial dysfunction. The FAO-dependent RIPK3 mediates pathogenesis of acute lung injury. |
| Recombinant Influenza B Hemagglutinin/HA Protein (HEK293, C-His)
Recombinant Influenza B Hemagglutinin / HA Protein is a homotrimer that recognizes target cells in vertebrates and does so by binding to salivary acid-containing receptors on these cells. When it binds to the target cell, it causes the host inner membrane to fuse with the viral membrane, thereby facilitating the entry of the viral genome into the target cell. |
| Recombinant Human FGF-9 (E. coli)
Fibroblast Growth Factor-9 (FGF-9) is a heparin binding growth factor that belongs to the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. ED50 < 2.0 ng/ mL, determined by 3T3 cell proliferation assay, corresponding to > 5.0× 105 units/mg. |
| Recombinant Human CXCL13/BCA-1 (E. coli)
CXCL13, also known as B-lymphocyte chemoattractant (BLC), is a CXC chemokine that is constitutively expressed in secondary lymphoid organs. Recombinant human CXCL13 is a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 87 amino acids and mature human BCA-1 shares 64 % amino acid sequence similarity with the murine protein and 23–34 % amino acid sequence identity with other known CXC chemokines. Determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human B cells, the biological activity is in a concentration range of 1.0-10 ng/ml. |
