Transforming growth factor 1 tgf β1

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

Transforming growth factor-1 (TGF-β1) is a protein that plays a key role in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, and other cellular processes. It is a member of the transforming growth factor beta family of cytokines. TGF-β1 is involved in a variety of biological and physiological functions, including cell proliferation, immune response, and tissue repair.

Th17 Cell Differentiation from Naive CD4+ T Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total CD4+ T cells from spleens of MRL/lpr mice were purified with negative selection using a Mouse T Cell Isolation Kit (Stem Cell Technologies Inc) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The purity was determined by FACS analysis (>98% CD4+). For T cell differentiation, the above purified naïve CD4+ T cell were cultured in RPMI-1640 with 10% heat-inactivated FBS and 2 mM L-glutamine in the presence of 1 μg/mL anti-mouse CD3 (Biolegend) and 0.5 μg/mL anti-mouse CD28 (Biolegend), followed by treatment with or without NCTD. Then, 2 ng/mL transforming growth factor-1 (TGF-β1) (Peprotech), 20 ng/mL IL-6 (Peprotech), 10 μg/mL anti-IL-4 antibody (Biolegend) and 10 μg/mL anti-IFN-γ antibody (Biolegend) were added to drive Th17 cell polarization. After 4 days, cells were collected for FACS analysis and cell culture supernatants were also collected to detect the IL-17 production as described above.

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.
