General description

Binds to heparin. Active in cell attachment of MG63 cells.
Product Source: Human plasma; tested negative for antibodies to HBsAg and HIV.
Vitronectin (S-protein) is a multi-functional plasma and extracellular matrix protein with defined activity in cell adhesion, thrombosis, complement activation, fibrinolysis, inflammation, and platelet adhesion. Vitronectin binds to other macromolecules and participates in regulatory circuits to control these processes. Some target macromolecules that interact with vitronectin are heparin, PAI-1, proteases such as thrombin and urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA), serine protease inhibitor-protease complexes, the uPA receptor, and a sub-class of integrin receptors on the surface of cells. Vitronectin is also applied as a thin coating on tissue-culture surfaces, which is useful to promote cell attachment, spreading, proliferation, and differentiation of many normal and neoplastic cells, and to study cell migration.
Application
Suitable for use in ELISA, immunization, cell attachment assays and electrophoresis.
Linkage
Replaces: 08-126
Physical form
Liquid in 50 mM sodium phosphate, 100 mM NaCl, pH 7.4, containing no preservatives.
Storage and Stability
Stable 12 months at -70°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
During shipment, small volumes of product will occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial. For products with volumes of 200μL or less, we recommend gently tapping the vial on a hard surface or briefly centrifuging the vial in a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container′s cap.

Functionalizing medical devices with polypeptides to enhance their performance has become important for improved clinical success. The extracellular matrix (ECM) adhesion protein vitronectin (VN) is an effective coating, although the chemistry used to attach VN often reduces its bioactivity. In

Integrins, cell-surface receptors that mediate adhesive interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM), play an important role in cancer progression. Expression of the vitronectin receptor alphavbeta3 integrin correlates with increased invasive and metastatic capacity of malignant melanomas, yet it

The intracellular signaling events controlling human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) differentiation into osteoblasts are not entirely understood. We recently demonstrated that contact with extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins is sufficient to induce osteogenic differentiation of hMSC through an ERK-dependent pathway. We
