CytoGrow™ Recombinant TGF-β1 (Bovine/Porcine), CHO, Tag Free
Recombinant transforming growth factor beta 1 produced in CHO cells to ensure proper folding, native post-translational modifications, and full biological activity. Supplied in tag-free format, this protein preserves its natural structure and function, enabling reliable, reproducible performance in cell-based assays.
TGF-β1 is a multifunctional cytokine that plays a central role in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and extracellular matrix (ECM) production. It is a key mediator in processes such as epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), immune regulation, and tissue development.
This recombinant TGF-β1 is widely used in cell culture to modulate cell signaling pathways, induce EMT, and support differentiation in various cell types. It is also commonly used in fibrosis research, cancer biology, stem cell studies, and tissue engineering, providing a defined, consistent alternative to animal-derived sources.
