Growth-related Oncogene a MGSA Lyophilized. Lyophilized from sterile-filtered PBS, 50 µg BSA/µg GROa Recombinant, human GROa expressed in E. coli. A CXC Chemokine that has been shown to bind with high affinity to the IL-8 receptor type B (CXCR2). Potent neutrophil attractant and activator. Higher levels of GROa are reported in cystic fibrosis lungs. Biological activity: ED50 = 0.15-0.3 µg/ml as measured by its ability to induce myeloperoxidase release from cytochalasin-treated neutrophils. Purity: ≥97% by SDS-PAGE. Contaminants: Endotoxin: ≤100 pg/µg GROa.. Ref.: Wyatt, H.A., et al. 2000. Respir. Med. 94, 106. Richmond, A., et al. 1988. EMBO J. 7, 2025. Anisowicz, A., et al. 1987. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci.
