            | Shipping | 
            The product is shipped at ambient temperature. | 
        
        
            | Reconstitution | 
            Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. 
            It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/ml. 
            Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 1X PBS. 
            Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. | 
        
        
            | Storage | 
            Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks. 
            Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days. 
            Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months. | 
        
        
            | Purity | 
            Greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC and reducing SDS-PAGE. | 
        
        
            | Endotoxin | 
            Less than 0.1 ng/µg (1 IEU/µg). |

            | Background | 
            Tachykinin 3 (TAC3) is a secreted protein that belongs to the Tachykinin family. Tachykinins are active peptides that excite neurons and evoke behavioral responses; they are potent vasodilators and secretagogues, and contract many smooth muscles in pregnancy. TAC3 is primarily expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems and functions as a neurotransmitter. It is also expressed in the outer syncytiotrophoblast of the placenta and may be associated with pregnancy-induced hypertension and pre-eclampsia. TAC3 acts as the ligand for the neurokinin-3 receptor, mutations in this gene are associated with normosmic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. |
