PMID: 26835904 CK18 combined with uric acid measurement is a promising non-invasive biomarker for prediction of disease severity in NASH patients PMID: 28472039 Results suggested that serum M65 is a useful indicator of liver inflammation in chronic hepatitis B patients. Serum M65, not M30, is valuable in the grading of liver fibrosis. PMID: 28514295 The results suggest that increased circulating CK-18 and FGF-21 are associated with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and may be used for initial assessment, but not enough PMID: 28326329 The purpose of this study is to investigate the immunohistochemical expression of cytokeratin 18 (CK18) and the reactivity to GDF5 (CDMP-1), called the morphogenetic protein-1, cartilage-derived, in lingual squamous cell carcinoma. PMID: 27151703 In patients with anterior STEMI treated with primary PCI, the apoptosis marker M30 might be useful for predicting LV remodeling and subsequent LV systolic dysfunction. PMID: 27479531 Serum concentrations of CK-18 fragments and transgelin-2 correlate with the severity of NAFLD, but not with obesity.

PMID: 27734227 Study demonstrated that the downregulation of CK18 is associated with the acquisition of paclitaxel-resistance and tumor aggressiveness in prostate cancer.

PMID: 27059955 Data show that adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC) differentiate into epithelial-like cells with the expression of epithelial surface marks cytokeratin 18 and 19 and form tube-like structures. PMID: 26416346 High circulating CCCK-18 levels were associated with injury severity and a poor clinical outcome after aSAH and CCCK-18 had the potential to be a good prognostic biomarker for aSAH. PMID: 26671131 NAFLD patients, serum CK-18 levels reflect disease activity scores and correlate with histological changes. PMID: 26436355 Data show that the decrease of keratin 18 (K18) ser33 and ser52 phosphorylation inhibited autophagy and decreased apoptosis of HCT116 cells. PMID: 26728375 As an apoptosis-related biomarker, serum M30 [M30 cytokeratin-18 peptide, human ] level has a merit to be the most promising test for prediction or differential diagnosis of HELLP syndrome in PE patients.

PMID: 25822281 The results suggest that oblongifolin C inhibits metastasis through the induction of the expression of keratin 18 and may be useful in cancer therapy. PMID: 25973684 Our results suggest that reliable detection of apoptosis via the M30 assay only works when sufficient levels of cytokeratin 18 are present in the cells. This means that the M30 assay may result in false negative results for apoptosis PMID: 25846732 No evidence of association between polymorphisms in KRT18 and sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in Han Chinese PMID: 25677198 Variants in highly conserved residues of K18 Asp89His (isoniazid-related) were found in patients with fatal Drug-induced liver injury. PMID: 26286715 Serum caspase-cleaved cytokeratin-18 levels were associated with mortality in severe septic patients. PMID: 25290885 Although only serum M65 levels were found to be of diagnostic value, neither M30 nor M65 serum levels played a prognostic role in the outcome in melanoma patients. PMID: 23812330 Under the present study design propofol or sevoflurane anaesthesia did not induce apoptosis or affected the liver function as assessed by the M30, M65 markers and liver enzymes in patients undergoing mastectomy or thyroidectomy under general anaesthesia.

PMID: 24605039 KRT18 expression is directly regulated by EGR1, and contributes to decrease malignancy of non-small cell lung carcinoma. PMID: 24990820 we identified four proteins with different expression in paclitaxel resistant cells, i.e., serpin B3, serpin B4, heat shock protein 27 (all three upregulated) and cytokeratin 18 (downregulated). PMID: 24898082 effect between the CK-18 concentration and the severity of NAFLD was found in the T2DM patients PMID: 24667697 Due to promising results of various studies, CK-18 cell death markers could be applied in clinical routine soon. PMID: 24622872 Median serum concentration of M30-CK18 was higher in chronic hepatitis C patients and was associated with inflammatory activity and liver fibrosis. PMID: 23981197 A new model that combines ALT, platelets, CK-18 fragments, and triglycerides was established by logistic regression among nonalcoholic fatty liver disease patients. PMID: 24324749 Serum M65 has the potential as a new diagnostic parameter for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and serum CD163 is a new prognostic parameter in HCC patients. PMID: 23792028 M 30 serum levels increase in patients with active ulcerative colitis. PMID: 23945185 These results provide an explanation for the elevated serum levels of HSP-27, HSP-70, and ccCK-18 found in COPD patients, indicating that hypoxic conditions can trigger the release of the aforementioned factors.

Proteins are sensitive to heat, and freeze-drying can preserve the activity of the majority of proteins. It improves protein stability, extends storage time, and reduces shipping costs. However, freeze-drying can also lead to the loss of the active portion of the protein and cause aggregation and denaturation issues. Nonetheless, these adverse effects can be minimized by incorporating protective agents such as stabilizers, additives, and excipients, and by carefully controlling various lyophilization conditions.

Commonly used protectant include saccharides, polyols, polymers, surfactants, some proteins and amino acids etc. We usually add 8% (mass ratio by volume) of trehalose and mannitol as lyoprotectant. Trehalose can significantly prevent the alter of the protein secondary structure, the extension and aggregation of proteins during freeze-drying process; mannitol is also a universal applied protectant and fillers, which can reduce the aggregation of certain proteins after lyophilization.

Our protein products do not contain carrier protein or other additives (such as bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA) and sucrose, etc., and when lyophilized with the solution with the lowest salt content, they often cannot form A white grid structure, but a small amount of protein is deposited in the tube during the freeze-drying process, forming a thin or invisible transparent protein layer.

Reminder: Before opening the tube cap, we recommend that you quickly centrifuge for 20-30 seconds in a small centrifuge, so that the protein attached to the tube cap or the tube wall can be aggregated at the bottom of the tube. Our quality control procedures ensure that each tube contains the correct amount of protein, and although sometimes you can't see the protein powder, the amount of protein in the tube is still very precise.
