BT-TPO
Carrier Free
CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.
In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Scientific Data

Equivalent bioactivity of GMP(BT-TPO-GMP),Animal-Free (BT-TPO-AFL) and RUO (Catalog # BT-TPO) grades of RecombinantHuman Thrombopoietin/Tpoproteins as measured in a cellproliferation assay using MO7ehuman megakaryocytic leukemiccells (orange, green, red,respectively).

Recombinant Human Thrombopoietin/Tpo (Catalog # BT-TPO) stimulates proliferation in the MO7e human megakaryocytic leukemic cell line. The ED50 for this effect is 0.0500‑0.500 ng/mL.

2 μg/lane of Recombinant Human Thrombopoietin/Tpo Protein (Catalog # BT-TPO) was resolved with SDS-PAGE under reducing (R) and non-reducing (NR) conditions and visualized by Coomassie® Blue staining, showing bands at 18-19 kDa, under reducing conditions.
Background: Thrombopoietin/Tpo
Thrombopoietin (TPO) is a crucial regulator of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) differentiation, maturation, and proliferation, as well as megakaryocytopoiesis and thrombopoiesis. TPO is often used in conjunction with Stem Cell Factor (SCF) and Flt-3 ligand in cell culture protocols to expand HSCs for bone marrow transplantation and cellular therapies. When combined with SCF and Flt-3 ligand, it promotes the differentiation of HSCs into megakaryocytes, leading to the production of platelets. It has shown promise in emerging cellular therapies for treating sickle cell disease, beta thalassemia, and other blood-related disorders. Moreover, TPO in combination with other cytokines is utilized in the generation of iNK cells, which have the potential to be incorporated into cellular immunotherapies.
