Description
BP000029-GD3: Recombinant Human FGF Acidic 136 (aFGF)
Background
FGF acidic, also known as aFGF/FGF-1/FGF1, ECGF, and HBGF 1, is a 17 kDa nonglycosylated member of the FGF family of mitogenic peptides. FGF acidic protein (aFGF/FGF-1/FGF1) is a potent growth factor for fibroblasts and endothelial cells (1). FGF acidic protein (aFGF/FGF-1/FGF1) is involved in wound repair, angiogenesis, and development (1). FGF acidic protein (aFGF/FGF-1/FGF1) is secreted from cells via an endoplasmic reticulum/Golgi independent mechanism (1,2). The ability of FGF acidic protein (aFGF/FGF-1/FGF1) to bind to heparin sulfate is required for its ability to interact with FGF receptors and induce signaling (1-4). There are four distinct FGF receptors and each has multiple splice variants (1,3). FGF acidic protein (aFGF/FGF-1/FGF1) binds with high affinity to many, but not all, FGFRs (1). Signaling cascades activated through FGF basic binding to FGFR include the ras-raf-MAPK, PLC /PKC, and PI3K/Akt pathways (1).

The FGF acidic protein (aFGF/FGF-1/FGF1) activity is measured in a NIH/3T3 cell proliferation assay. The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.1-0.3 ng/ml in the presence of 10 ug/ml of heparin.
Endotoxin: <1.0 EU per 1 ug of the protein by the LAL method. Purity: > 95% by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and visualized by silver stain.
Formulation: Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered solution in PBS, pH 7.2.
Reconstitution: Reconstitute at 10 mg/ml in sterile PBS containing at least 0.1% human or bovine serum albumin.
Shipping: The product is shipped at 4°C. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature recommended below.
