Human FGF-7 / HBGF-7 / KGF Protein, premium grade

Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 7 (is also known as Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) ), a member of FGF family, is initially found to be secreted from mesenchymal cells to repair epithelial tissues. As a well-characterized paracrine growth factor for tissue growth and regeneration, fibroblast growth factor 7 (FGF7) is involved in a number of physiological and pathological processes, including lung disease and cancer. The stromal-derived FGFs, such as FGF7 and FGF10, control epithelial cell resident FGFR2IIIb activities, promote net tissue homeostasis, and restraint tumor cells from progression to malignancy.

This protein carries no "tag". The protein has a calculated MW of 19.0 kDa. The protein migrates as 27 kDa±3 kDa when calibrated against Star Ribbon Pre-stained Protein Marker under non-reducing (NR) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.

● -20°C to -70°C for 24 months in lyophilized state; ● -70°C for 3 months under sterile conditions after reconstitution. For long term storage, the product should be stored at lyophilized state at -20°C or lower.
