Stability and Reconstitution

Stability and Storage Lyophilized proteins are stable for 1 year from the date of receipt if stored between (-20°C) and (-80°C). Upon reconstitution we recommend that the solution can be stored at (4°C) for short term or at (-20°C) to (-80°C) for long term. Repeated freeze thaw cycles should be avoided with reconstituted products.
Reconstitution Briefly centrifuge the vial before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the protein to 0.2 mg/mL in sterile 1x PBS pH 7.4 containing 0.1% endotoxin-free recombinant human serum albumin (HSA). Gently swirl or tap vial to mix.

Our GMP recombinant proteins are animal component free (ACF), xeno free (XF) and tag free (TF). Read more about these policies here.

Background

Interleukin 9 (IL-9) is a γc-family cytokine produced by T-helper 9 (Th9) cells. IL-9 promotes the survival and activation of various cellular targets, including mast cells, B cells, T cells, and structural cells. Its expression is considered a hallmark of Th2-lineage cells. Primarily studied in Th2-type immunity, IL-9 was shown to be involved in asthma, allergy, and host defense against helminth infections. IL-9 also stimulates cell proliferation and prevents apoptosis. It functions through the its cognate receptor (IL9R), which activates different signal transducer and activator proteins to execute various biological processes (PMID: 29703631; 29437190; 29392411; 29391143)
