Description
Description: Rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody for Fibroblast growth factor 2(FGF2) detection. Tested with WB, IHC-P, ELISA, Neu, IP in Human.
Background: FGF2 has been implicated in a multitude of physiologic and pathologic processes, including limb development, angiogenesis, wound healing, and tumor growth. Human FGF2 shares 96% and 97% amino acid sequence homology with mouse and rat respectively. FGF2 belongs to the fibroblast growth factor(FGF) family. Fibroblast growth factors(FGFs) exhibit widespread mitogenic and neurotrophic activities. Nine members of the family are currently known, and FGF-1 and FGF-2 are present in relatively high levels in CNS. FGF-2 is expressed by at low levels in many tissues and cell types and reaches high concentrations in brain and pituitary
