U-937 nuclear extract (IFNα treated)
背景资料:U-937 nuclear extract (IFNα treated) was prepared from cell cultures of the human histiotic lymphoma U-937 cell line. The U-937 cell line was derived from malignant cells of a pleural effusion of a 37-year old male patient. These cells are of myeloid lineage and differentiate into a mature macrophage phenotype in response to various stimuli. U-937 cells produce and secrete large quantities of cytokines and chemokines either spontaneously or in response to treatment with soluble stimuli, such as TNFα. Furthermore, IFNβ and IFNϒ stimulation has been shown to induce the expression of chemokine receptors on the cell surface of U-937 cells and results in increased production of interleukins. Because U-937 cells are one of only a few human cell lines with characteristic monocytic properties, they are commonly used in research as in vitromodels for monocyte/macrophage differentiation.
In addition to increasing the expression of chemokine receptors, treatment of U-937 cells with the IFNα induces cell cycle arrest and differentiation of U-937. IFNα treatment of U-937 cells also promotes apoptosis, causes alterations in viral replication efficiency, and induces the JAK/STAT signaling pathway.
产品描述:
U-937 extract is recommended for studies of monocyte/macrophage differentiation. U-937 nuclear extract (IFNα treated) is specifically recommended for studies related to 1) chemokine and cytokine production and secretion, 2) proliferation and apoptosis, 3) viral replication (ie HIV), and 4) the JAK/STAT signaling pathway.
产品应用:
U-937 nuclear extract (IFNα treated) is supplied in Dilution Buffer (20 mM Hepes (pH 7.9), 100 mM KCl, 1 mM MgCl2, 20% glycerol, 0.5 mM PMSF and 0.5 mM DTT). Cells were cultured in medium supplemented with 5000 U/ml interferon alpha for one hour at 37°C immediately prior to harvesting.
产品使用:
Extracts have been quality control tested by Western blot and the Electrophoretic Mobility Shift Assay (EMSA).
温度保存:
Lyophilized proteins can be stored at -20°C or -80°C, preferably desiccated. Recombinant proteins in solution are temperature sensitive and must be stored at -80°C to prevent degradation. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles and keep on ice when not in storage.

关于5-hmC
5-hmC是近年来在动物组织中发现的,由胞嘧啶修饰而来。5-hmC在表观遗传学上的功能可能与5-甲基化胞嘧啶(5-mC)不同。尽管到现在为止还不确知其功能,有研究者猜测它在调控基因的表达与关闭过程中起着重要的作用。5-mC的发现让我们不得不重新评估DNA甲基信息,也不得不监测人类的健康组织和病理组织之间5-mC相对分布的差异。在EPI公司的MethylFlash技术之前,我们还没有发现任何直接的常规方法来检测5- hmC,以及区分5-hmC和5-mC
5-hmC 和 5-mC的区别
时下常用的DNA甲基化分析方法包括限制内切酶酶切和亚硫酸氢盐或MeDIP介导的MS-PCR和测序,这些技术都不适合用来检测5-hmC,因为它与5-mC事实上很难用这类方法区分开来。为了解决这个问题,EPIk研制了MethylFlash羟甲基化DNA定量试剂盒(荧光法)。本试剂盒提供了一种很经济的方法来检测5-羟甲基化胞嘧啶,并且区分5-hmC, 5-mC, 和 C,使得研究者能够重新评估他们的DNA甲基化信息,也能够在新样品中寻找DNA羟甲基化。 |
