CytoGrow™ Recombinant TGF-β2 (Bovine/Porcine), CHO, Tag Free
Recombinant transforming growth factor beta 2 produced in CHO cells to ensure proper folding, native post-translational modifications, and full biological activity. Supplied in a tag-free format, this protein maintains its natural structure and function for consistent and reliable performance in research applications.
TGF-β2 is a multifunctional cytokine involved in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and extracellular matrix (ECM) production. It plays a key role in developmental processes, immune modulation, and tissue homeostasis, with distinct functions in epithelial and mesenchymal cell interactions.
This recombinant TGF-β2 is widely used in cell culture to study signaling pathways, support cell differentiation, and modulate cellular responses. It is particularly relevant for applications in developmental biology, cancer research, fibrosis studies, and tissue engineering.
