Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: GST&His

• Bio-activity: Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), also known as colony stimulating factor 2 (CSF2), is a monomeric glycoprotein secreted by macrophages, T cells, mast cells, natural killer cells, endothelial cells and fibroblasts that functions as a cytokine. GM-CSF is a monomeric glycoprotein that functions as a cytokine - it is a white blood cell growth factor. It also has some effects on mature cells of the immune system, such as inhibiting neutrophil migration and causing an alteration of the receptors expressed on the cells surface. GM-CSF signals via signal transducer and activator of transcription, STAT5. In macrophages, it has also been shown to signal via STAT3. Besides, Colony Stimulating Factor 2 Receptor Alpha (CSF2Ra) has been identified as an interactor of GM-CSF, thus a binding ELISA assay was conducted to detect the interaction of recombinant human GM-CSF and recombinant human CSF2Ra. Briefly, GM-CSF were diluted serially in PBS, with 0.01% BSA (pH 7.4). Duplicate samples of 100 ul were then transferred to CSF2Ra-coated microtiter wells and incubated for 1h at 37°C. Wells were washed with PBST and incubated for 1h with anti-GM-CSF pAb, then aspirated and washed 3 times. After incubation with HRP labelled secondary antibody, wells were aspirated and washed 3 times. With the addition of substrate solution, wells were incubated 15-25 minutes at 37°C. Finally, add 50 µL stop solution to the wells and read at 450 nm immediately. The binding activity of recombinant human GM-CSF and recombinant human CSF2Ra was shown, the EC50 for this effect is 0.04 ug/mL.
