FGF Basic antibody
Rabbit anti Human FGF basic polyclonal antibody recognizes human Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) basic, otherwise known as FGF 2 (fibroblast growth factor 2), a member of the heparin-binding growth factor family which exists in both cytosolic and nuclear isoforms, ranging in size from 18-24kDa, expressed by the majority of cells and tissues.
FGF basic is a multi-functional growth factor identified as a potent inducer of angiogenesis, an important factor in wound healing, tumour vascularisation and cardiovascular disease and is pivotal for the development and maintenance of vascular integrity during embryogenesis.
The recombinant basic FGF protein used as immunogen for development of Rabbit anti Human FGF basic polyclonal antibody corresponds to the C-terminal portion of the molecule (A135 - S288), present in all known isoforms of human FGF basic, thus all isoforms are expected to be recognized by this Rabbit anti Human FGF basic polyclonal antibody.
