FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities and are involved in a variety of biological processes including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. FGF-21 has a hydrophobic amino terminus, which is a typical signal sequence, and appears to be a secreted protein. The metabolic regulator fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) has antidiabetic properties in animal models of diabetes and obesity. FGF21 is a novel adipokine associated with obesity-related metabolic complications in humans. The paradoxical increase of serum FGF21 in obese individuals, which may be explained by a compensatory response or resistance to FGF21, warrants further investigation. FGF-21, which we have identified as a novel metabolic factor, exhibits the therapeutic characteristics necessary for an effective treatment of diabetes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSequence: His 29-Ser 209\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePurity: \u0026gt; 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFormulation: Lyophilized from 50 mM Tris, 10 % glycerol, 0.05 % Brij 35, pH 8.0.\u003cbr\u003e\nNormally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.\u003cbr\u003e\nPlease refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReconstitution: Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEndotoxin: Please contact us for more information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCalculated MW: 20.2 kDa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eObserved MW: 23 kDa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStorage: Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80℃.
