Alternative names:

Fibroblast growth factor 7;FGF-7;Heparin-binding growth factor 7;HBGF-7;Keratinocyte growth factor;FGF7

Description:

Recombinant Human Fibroblast Growth Factor 7/Keratinocyte growth factor is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Cys32-Thr194 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.

Background:

Fibroblast growth factor 7 (FGF7) is a secreted protein which is mainly located in epithelial cells and belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. FGF7 is a potent epithelial cell-specific growth factor, whose mitogenic activity is predominantly exhibited in keratinocytes but not in fibroblasts and endothelial cells. It is possible major paracrine effector of normal epithelial cell proliferation.
