The interaction of at least 23 ligands, four receptors, and multiple coreceptors provides a dramatic complexity to a signaling system capable of effecting a multitude of responses (1,2). Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF or FGF2), initially identified as a mitogen with prominent angiogenic properties, is now recognized as a multifunctional growth factor (3). It is clear that bFGF produces its biological effects in target cells by signaling through cell-surface FGF receptors. bFGF binds to all four FGF receptors. Ligand binding induces receptor dimerization and autophosphorylation, allowing binding and activation of cytoplasmic downstream target proteins, including FRS-2, PLC, and Crk (4,5). The FGF signaling pathway appears to play a significant role not only in normal cell growth regulation but also in tumor development and progression (6).Acidic FGF (aFGF or FGF1) is another extensively investigated protein of the FGF family. aFGF shares 55% DNA sequence homology with bFGF. These two growth factors are ubiquitously expressed and exhibit a wide spectrum of similar biological activities with quantitative differences likely due to variations in receptor affinity or binding (7).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nAcidic fibroblast growth factor; aFGF; Beta-endothelial cell growth factor; ECGF; ECGF-beta; ECGFA; ECGFB; Endothelial cell growth factor; endothelial cell growth factor, alpha; endothelial cell growth factor, beta; FGF-1; FGF-alpha; FGF1; FGFA; Fibroblast growth factor 1; fibroblast growth factor 1 (acidic); GLIO703; HBGF-1; HBGF1; Heparin-binding growth factor 1\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Recombinant protein\nMW (kDa): 17\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46798073102505,"sku":"3139S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/cst-3139s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
