AKR1B1 catalyzes the reduction several aldehydes, including the aldehyde form of glucose, and thus involved in the development of diabetic complications by catalyzing the reduction of glucose to sorbitol. AKR1B1 catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of a wide variety of carbonyl-containing compounds to their corresponding alcohols. Transgenic mice over expressing human aldose reductase show that AKR1B1 is a key player in ischemic injury and impairment of functional and metabolic recovery after ischemia. Aldose Reductase is an obligatory mediator of TNF-alpha signaling leading to an increase in the expression of adhesion molecules and increased binding of monocytes to the endothelium. AKR1B1 is a critical regulator of TNF-alpha-induced apoptotic signaling in endothelial cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-desc\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#1a5c58;margin:12px 0 4px\"\u003eBiological Activity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecific activity is \u0026gt; 500 pmol\/min\/ug, and is defined as the amount of enzyme that catalyze the reduction of 1.0 pmole DL-glyceraldehyde in the presence of NADPH per minute at pH7.0 at 37C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-desc\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color:#1a5c58;margin:12px 0 4px\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:0.92em\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:4px 8px;background:#e8f4f3;width:180px;font-weight:bold\"\u003ePurity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:4px 8px\"\u003eGreater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:4px 8px;background:#e8f4f3;width:180px;font-weight:bold\"\u003eFormulation\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:4px 8px\"\u003eAKR1B1 protein solution (1mg\/ml) containing Phosphate buffered saline (pH7.4), and 10% glycerol.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:4px 8px;background:#e8f4f3;width:180px;font-weight:bold\"\u003eStorage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:4px 8px\"\u003eStore at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks.
