Endothelial growth factors and cytokines
Highly bioactive, animal-free growth factors and cytokines for endothelial stem cell culture.
Endothelial cells line the interior surface of blood vessels, forming a thin layer known as the endothelium. They play a crucial role in maintaining vascular function and homeostasis. Endothelial cells serve several important functions, including regulating the passage of substances and cells between the bloodstream and surrounding tissues, controlling blood vessel tone and permeability, and participating in the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis). Qkine proteins for endothelial cells include VEGF and species-specific thermostable FGF-2, such as bovine/porcine FGF2-G3.
Qkine robust animal-free manufacturing platform, along with rigorous quality control procedures, ensure that all our endothelial growth factors and cytokines are:
- animal origin-free (AOF) and carrier protein-free
- highly pure (>98%, by SDS-PAGE quantitative densitometry)
- highly bioactive (equally or more bioactive than other dominant suppliers) and come with our Bioactivity Guarantee
- highly reproducible with excellent lot-to-lot consistency
