Recombinant Mouse Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Subunit B (Pdgfb)

Store at -20 degree C. For extended storage, conserve at -20 degree C or -80 degree C. Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4 degree C for up to one week.

Localized to vascular smooth muscle cells. Also weakly expressed by cortical interstitial cells but absent in tubules. Up-regulated in areas of renal fibrosis. In mice with unilateral ureteral obstruction, an increased expression in interstitial cells and in some tubules observed after day 4.
