- Overview
  - Predicted MW: Monomer, 11.2 kDa (98 aa). Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a mitogen that is secreted by vascular endothelial cells in response to basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). CTGF promotes cell growth, migration, adhesion, and survival of endothelial cells. CTGF is also important during osteogenesis, chondrogenesis, and skeletogenesis. CTGF has an insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP) domain, a thrombospondin type 1 repeat (TSR) domain, and a C-terminal cysteine knot motif.

- Applications
  - Application Description
    
    Centrifuge vial before opening, Suspend the product by gently pipetting the above recommended solution down the sides of the vial. DO NOT VORTEX. Allow several minutes for complete reconstitution. For prolonged storage, dilute to working aliquots in a 0.1% BSA solution, store at -80°C and avoid repeat freeze thaws. Upon reconstitution, a small amount of visible precipitate can be expected. A 10% overfill has been added to the total material vialed to compensate for this loss.
