Formulation:Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.
Reconstitution:Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information.
Background:Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α) is secreted by macrophages; monocytes; neutrophils; T-cells; and NK-cells following stimulation by bacterial LPS. Cells expressing CD4 secrete TNF-α while cells that express CD8 secrete little or no TNF-α. Synthesis of TNF-α can be induced by many different stimuli including interferons; IL2; and GM-CSF. The clinical use of the potent anti-tumor activity of TNF-α has been limited by the proinflammatory side effects such as fever; dose-limiting hypotension; hepatotoxicity; intravascular thrombosis; and hemorrhage. Designing clinically applicable TNF-α mutants with low systemic toxicity has been of intense pharmacological interest. Human TNF-α that binds to murine TNF-R55 but not murine TNF-R7; exhibits retained anti-tumor activity and reduced systemic toxicity in mice compared with murine TNF-α; which binds to both murine TNF receptors. Based on these results; many TNF-α mutants that selectively bind to TNF-R55 have been designed. These mutants displayed cytotoxic activities on tumor cell lines in vitro and have exhibited lower systemic toxicity in vivo. Recombinant Human TNF-α High Active Mutant differs from the wild-type by amino acid subsitution of amino acids 1-7 with Arg8; Lys9; Arg10 and Phe157. This mutant form has been shown to have increased activity with less inflammatory side effects in vivo.
