Description
KGF/FGF-7 Protein is an epithelial cell-specific mitogen secreted by normal stromal fibroblasts. KGF/FGF-7 Protein activates plasminogen activator (PA) activity to promote extracellular matrix degradation. KGF/FGF-7 Protein, Human has activities such as promoting the proliferation and differentiation of epithelial cells (such as keratinocytes, thymic epithelial cells), repairing tissue damage (such as intestinal ischemia/reperfusion injury, bone defects), and regulating immune function (such as improving thymus function in aged mice) . KGF/FGF-7 Protein, Human is a recombinant KGF/FGF-7 protein expressed by E. coli without a tag.
