Oncostatin-M, mouse recombinant (rmOSM)

Mouse recombinant OSM produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 181 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 20.4kDa. Oncostatin M is a member of a cytokine family that includes leukemia-inhibitory factor, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and interleukin 6. This gene encodes a growth regulator which inhibits the proliferation of a number of tumor cell lines. It regulates cytokine production, including IL-6, G-CSF and GM-CSF from endothelial cells.
