  • Introduction

    SPARC, an acronym for “secreted protein, acidic and rich in cysteine”, is also known as osteonectin or BM-40. It is the founding member of a family of secreted matricellular proteins with similar domain structure. The 303 amino acid, 43 kDa protein contains a 17 aa signal sequence, an N-terminal acidic region that binds calcium, a follistatin domain containing Kazal-like sequences, and a C-terminal extracellular calcium (EC) binding domain with two EF-hand motifs. SPARC is produced by fibroblasts, capillary endothelial cells, platelets and macrophages, especially in areas of tissue morphogenesis and remodeling. SPARC shows context-specific effects, but generally inhibits adhesion, spreading and proliferation, and promotes collagen matrix formation. For endothelial cells, SPARC disrupts focal adhesions and binds and sequesters PDGF and VEGF. SPARC is abundantly expressed in bone, where it promotes osteoblast differentiation and inhibits adipogenesis.

  • Synonyms

    Osteonectin, ON, Basement-membrane protein 40, BM-40, SPARC, Secreted Protein acidic and Rich in Cysteine.

  • Physical Appearance

    Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

  • Stability

    Lyophilized SPARC although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Secreted Protein Acidic & Rich in Cysteine should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

  • Solubility

    It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized SPARC in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
