Product name
Recombinant Human sTRAILR2/TNFRSF10B protein
Code
CD00868
Biological activity
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. rHusTRAIL-R2 reduced the production of LPS-induced TNF by its ability to neutralize endogenous TRAIL in fresh human PBMC. In this assay, endogenous TRAIL is induced during a 24 hour exposure to LPS (10 ng/mL) but in the presence of rHusTRAIL-R2, TRAIL-induced TNF is suppressed.
Endotoxin
Less than 1 EU/μg of rHusTRAIL-R2 as determined by LAL method.

Molecular Weight
Approximately 14.8 kDa, a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 132 amino acids.
Formulation
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.
Reconstitution
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
Background
Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand Receptor 2 (TRAIL-R2) is a cell-surface receptor involved in tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced cell-death signaling. The death ligand TRAIL bears high potential as a new anticancer agent, as binding to the death receptors TRAIL-R1 or TRAIL-R2 triggers apoptosis in most cancer cells. TRAIL-R2 has been shown to be associated with a decrease in the survival rates of breast cancer patients.
