Synonym(s):
PF4
Assay
≥95% (SDS-PAGE)
form
liquid
General description
Native platelet factor 4 from human platelets. A heparin-binding chemokine released from α-granules of activated platelets. Binds to the newly formed blood vessels and reduces tumor neovascularization. Molecular weight = 7800-9000 (monomer).
Physical form
In 1.5 M NaCl, 20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.3.
Preparation Note
Following initial thaw, aliquot and freeze (-20°C).
Prepared from platelets that have been shown by certified tests to be negative for HBsAg and for antibodies to HIV and HCV.

Emerging evidence supports a role for platelets in the progression of atherosclerosis in addition to an involvement in thrombotic vascular occlusion. Platelet Factor 4 (PF4), a chemokine released by activated platelets, stimulates several pro-atherogenic processes. Therefore, we examined the localization

When administered locally, recombinant platelet factor 4 (rPF4), a known angiogenesis inhibitor, has been shown to effectively suppress murine melanoma and human colon carcinoma primary tumor growth in mice. It was tentatively concluded that this effect was due to the

Platelet factor 4 is a heparin-binding protein released from the alpha granules of activated platelets. This study describes the purification and identification of two forms of rat platelet factor 4, the previously characterized non-glycosylated form of 7 kDa and an

Platelet factor 4 (PF-4) blocked the binding of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) to the plasma membrane receptor. Five micrograms/ml of PF-4 completely blocked the specific binding of bFGF to the receptor of NIH 3T3 cells. Endogenously produced bFGF regulates
