ADAM8 is a proteolytically active member of the ADAM protease family originally described in inflammatory processes and subsequently in many systems of the body. Increased expression of ADAM8 was observed in other neoplasias, such as high-grade glioma, lung adenocarcinoma, prostate cancer, and more recently, in squamous head and neck cell carcinoma, medulloblastoma, osteosarcoma and breast cancer suggesting that ADAM8 plays an active role in tumour progression. Thus, understanding the functional role of ADAM8 in tumour biology is important. Properties Storage Instructions All the reagents are stored at 2-8℃ for 6 months or -20℃ for 12 months.

How should I handle samples requiring high dilution factors? Answer: We recommend performing a serial dilution. For example, if human serum requires a 1,000,000-fold dilution, you can use a three-step 100× dilution method as follows: Step 1: Take 2 uL of human serum and add it to 198 uL of sample diluent, mix thoroughly to obtain a 100-fold diluted sample. Step 2: Take 2 uL of the 100-fold diluted sample and add it to 198 uL of sample diluent, mix thoroughly to obtain a 10,000-fold diluted sample. Step 3: Take 2 uL of the 10,000-fold diluted sample and add it to 198 uL of sample diluent, mix thoroughly to obtain a 1,000,000-fold diluted sample. If further dilution is required, additional serial steps can be used. We do not recommend using any other solutions or water for dilution, except for the sample diluent we suggest. If your sample diluent is still insufficient, please contact our customer service for more sample diluent.
