FGF-10 Antibody [Unconjugated]

The FGFs are a growing family of heparin-binding growth factors that show a variety of biological activities toward cells of mesenchymal, neuronal and epithelial origin. All FGFs have two conserved cysteine residues and share significant amino acid sequence homology. FGF-10 was originally identified from rat embryos by homology-based polymerase chain reaction. Human and mouse FGF-10 were subsequently cloned. The human FGF-10 cDNA encodes a 208 amino acid residue protein with a hydrophobic amino-terminal signal peptide. Human FGF-10 shares approximately 92% and 95% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat
FGF‑10, respectively. Among the FGF family members, FGF-10 is most closely related to FGF-7. The expression of FGF-10 transcripts has been shown to be most abundant in the embryo and adult lung. Recombinant FGF-10 preparations have been shown to be mitogenic for epithelial and epidermal cells but not fibroblasts. Based on its in vitro biological activities and in vivo expression pattern, FGF-10 has been proposed to play unique roles in the brain, in lung development, wound healing and limb bud formation.
