Monoclonal Anti-FGF1 antibody produced in mouse

FGF1 (fibroblast growth factor 1) gene encodes a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. It encodes a pro-angiogenic protein that is ubiquitously expressed. In humans, FGF1 is alternatively spliced into four forms: FGF1A (in kidney), FGF1B (in brain), FGF1-C and -D (in vascular smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts). This gene is located on human chromosome 5q31.

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. This protein functions as a modifier of endothelial cell migration and proliferation, as well as an angiogenic factor. It acts as a mitogen for a variety of mesoderm- and neuroectoderm-derived cells in vitro, thus is thought to be involved in organogenesis. Multiple alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been described. (provided by RefSeq)

FGF1 (fibroblast growth factor 1) is mainly involved in cell growth, proliferation and neurogenesis. This gene also participates in wound healing, post-ischemic heart repair and making of collaterals after hindlimb ischemia. The protein functions as an angiogenic factor that participates in tissue repair, carcinogenesis, and maintenance of vasculature stability.
