Reconstitution
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1% BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0mg/ml. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤-20℃. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.

Background
NOV, also named CCN3, IGFBP-9 and NovH, is belonging to the CCN (CTGF/CYR61/NOV) family and it is encoded by the NOV gene. It is expressed in certain tumors, including Wilm's tumor and most nephroblastomas. NOV interacts with several proteins and is involved in both internal and external cell signaling. NOV plays an important role in reducing tumorgenicity and proliferation of certain cancer cell lines. It also been reported to exert proangiogenic activities. Recombinant murine NOV is an 36.4kDa protein containing 333 amino acid residues and it shares 92% and 82%a.a. identity with rat and human NOV.
