Scientific Background
CCL25 (thymus expressed chemokine) is a novel CC chemokine that is distantly related (approximately 20% amino acid sequence identity) to other CC chemokines. Mouse CCL25 cDNA has also been cloned and shown to encode a 144 aa protein that exhibits 49% aa sequence identity to human CCL25. The expresssion of human and mouse CCL25 was shown to be highly restricted to the thymus and small intestine. Although dendritic cells have been demonstrated to be the source of CCL25 production in the thymus, dendritic cells derived from bone marrow do not express CCL25. Recombinant human and mouse CCL25 have been shown to be chemotactic for activated macrophages, dendritic cells and thymocytes.

Functional Activity
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. Determined by its ability to chemoattract human monocytes using a concentration range of 1.0 -10.0 ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of >1 x 105 IU/mg.
Safety & Handling
This material is offered by USA Bioworld biotech for research, laboratory or further evaluation purposes. NOT FOR HUMAN USE. Made in China
This protein was produced in E. coli expression system. Expression system selection determines glycosylation profile, folding, and post-translational modifications. For cell-based stimulation assays, verify the expression system matches the glycosylation requirements of your target receptor or pathway.
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1% BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at <-20℃. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or PBS at 100 µg/mL as a standard starting concentration. Allow to dissolve at 4°C for 30 minutes without vortexing. Prepare working aliquots in 0.1% BSA carrier protein and store at −80°C.
This protein has been validated for functional bioactivity: Fully biologically active when compared to standard. Determined by its ability to chemoattract human monocytes using a concentration range of 1.0 -10.0 ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of >1 x 105 IU/mg.. Optimal working concentrations may vary depending on your cell type, assay format, and culture conditions. Titrate the protein in a dose-response experiment to determine the optimal concentration for your system.
Endotoxin level is Less than 1EU/µg of rHuTECK/CCL25 as determined by LAL method. as determined by the LAL method. Low endotoxin is critical for cell-based studies because endotoxin activates NF-κB and TLR4 signalling in immune cells, producing artefactual cytokine induction that can completely mask the true biological activity of the recombinant protein.
This lyophilized preparation is stable for several weeks at 2-8℃, but should be kept at -20℃ for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is stable for up to one Upon receipt, immediately store at −80°C. Prepare single-use working aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Lyophilized protein is stable for 6–12 months at −80°C from the date of receipt.
