Recombinant Human IL-3

Product Details

Catalog Number: 200-03
Description:
Recombinant Human IL-3

IL-3 is a hematopoietic growth factor that promotes the survival, differentiation and proliferation of committed progenitor cells of the megakaryocyte, granulocyte-macrophage, erythroid, eosinophil, basophil and mast cell lineages.  Produced by T cells, mast cells and eosinophils, IL-3 enhances thrombopoiesis, phagocytosis, and antibody-mediated cellular cytotoxicity.  Its ability to activate monocytes suggests that IL-3 may have additional immunoregulatory roles.  Many of the IL-3 activities depend upon co-stimulation with other cytokines.  IL-3 is a species-specific, variably glycosylated cytokine.  Recombinant Human IL-3 is a 15.0 kDa globular protein containing 133 amino acid residues.

IL3 for iPSC differentiation
Much cheaper than other options present in the market and extremely efficient. I'd highly recommend it as it is easy to reconstitute and very dependable.
