Product Datasheets
Carrier Free
CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.
In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Background: CTRP9/C1qTNF9
C1qTNF9, also known as CTRP9, is an approximately 40 kDa member of the C1q and TNF-related protein family (1). Like all members of this protein family, C1qTNF9 consists of a short variable region, a collagenous domain that can be hydroxylated, and a C1q-like globular domain (1). Human C1qTNF9 shares 85% amino acid sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs. Both the mouse and human C1qTNF9 proteins are expressed in adipose tissue, but the mouse protein has also been detected in the heart, lung, muscle, kidney, testis, lymph node, smooth muscle, prostate, thymus, and uterus (1, 2). They have both also been shown to be secreted as trimers and higher order multimers and also to form hetero-oligomers with Adiponectin (1, 2). Mouse C1qTNF9 can stimulate the phosphorylation of AMPK, Akt, and eNOS (1, 3, 4). Also in mice, C1qTNF9 may have an important role in cardiac and metabolic health. Its expression has a cardioprotective effect following acute myocardial infarction that may be dependent on AMPK activation (4-6). Additionally, transgenic mice overexpressing C1qTNF9 are resistant to high fat diet‑induced obesity (7). This metabolic role may be conserved, since C1qTNF9 serum levels have been shown to inversely correlate with metabolic syndrome in humans (8).
