Stability and Reconstitution

Stability and Storage Lyophilized proteins are stable for 1 year from the date of receipt if stored between (-20°C) and (-80°C). Upon reconstitution we recommend that the solution can be stored at (4°C) for short term or at (-20°C) to (-80°C) for long term. Repeated freeze thaw cycles should be avoided with reconstituted products.
Reconstitution Briefly centrifuge the vial before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the protein in sterile 1x PBS pH 7.4 containing 0.1% endotoxin-free recombinant human serum albumin (HSA).

Background

FGF-19 is a member of the endocrine subfamily of FGFs. It primarily binds and activates signaling pathways downstream of FGFR4 in the liver. Through downregulation of the CYP7A1 enzyme, FGF-19 can prevent overproduction of bile salts in the liver and contribute towards their homeostasis. It is also a regulator of glucose and lipid metabolism alongside FGF-21. FGF-19 can additionally stimulate hepatocyte proliferation and has been correlated with the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma when its signaling levels are increased.
