Thrombopoietin tpo

Manufactured by Fujifilm
Sourced in Canada, United States

Thrombopoietin (TPO) is a glycoprotein that functions as a cytokine and a growth factor. It is primarily responsible for the regulation of platelet production and maturation. TPO is a core component in various laboratory and research applications.

Sorted human CXCL12hi/LEPR+ cells were seeded at a density of 1·5 × 102 cells/cm2 into 96‐well plates and were cultured in MSC expansion medium for 10 days. Then medium was removed, and 5 000 human cord blood CD34+ cells (RIKEN BRC, Tsukuba, Japan) were co‐cultured with or without the adherent CXCL12hi/LEPR+ cells in StemSpan Serum‐Free Expansion Medium (StemCell Technologies, Vancouver, BC, Canada) supplemented with 25 ng/ml of recombinant human SCF (Fuji Film Wako Pure Chemical), thrombopoietin (TPO; Fuji Film Wako Pure Chemical) and fms‐related receptor tyrosine kinase 3 ligand (FLT3L; Fuji Film Wako Pure Chemical), and 1% penicillin/streptomycin at 37°C with 5% CO2. After one week of co‐culture, cells were harvested and the numbers of CD34+ cells were counted using flow cytometry.

Coculture Analysis of CD34+ Cells

Coculture analysis was performed in 12-well Millicell Cell Culture Plates (0.4 µm pore size; Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) using Stem Span serum-free medium (StemCell Technologies), supplemented with 50 ng/mL VEGF, 20 ng/mL IL-6 (R&D Systems), 100 ng/mL SCF (Kirin), 20 ng/mL thrombopoietin (TPO; Wako), 100 ng/mL Flt-3 ligand (Wako), and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (WELGENE). Human CD34+ cells isolated from HUCB were seeded in the lower compartment of the transwell, and the transwell membrane inserts were seeded with human CD34 cells isolated from HUCB or left unseeded. To measure the EPC-CFU potential of CD34+ cells after coculture, the transwell inserts were removed after 7 d. The expansion of CD34+ cell was determined by cell counting.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
