Biochem/physiol Actions

Fibroblast Growth Factor Basic (also known as bFGF) is a pleotropic cytokine that that is a potent mitogenic factor. On binding to its cognate receptor tyrosine kinase, FGFR, bFGF is capable of activation of pathways such as MAPK and PI3K and produce cellular effects in varied cell types. Fibroblast Growth Factor-basic is reported to induce proliferation of fibroblasts, differentiation, wound healing and regeneration, limb formation, tissue remodeling and angiogenesis.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline with 5% trehalose.

Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is frequently characterized by increased cell proliferation, probably as a tissue regenerative response. Although many growth factors and their receptors have been shown to be expressed normally in the disc, and generally to be over-expressed during

Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) has been purified to homogeneity from bovine pituitaries by two methods. Starting material for both methods was an FGF preparation partially purified as described by Gospodarowicz [Gospodarowicz, D. (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 2515-2520]. Purification procedure

Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and their receptors play fundamental roles regulating growth, morphogenesis, and cartilage formation in embryonic limbs and facial primordia. However, the intracellular pathways that transduce FGF signals during the differentiation of pluripotent mesenchymal cells into chondrocytes are

The Crouzon syndrome, which is associated with fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR2) mutations, is characterized by premature fusion of cranial sutures. We used an in vitro model of cultured periosteal fibroblasts from normal subjects and from Crouzon patients with FGFR2
