Description
FGF2 is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members bind heparin and possess broad mitogenic and angiogenic activities. FGF2 is a single-chain polypeptide growth factor that plays a significant role in the process of wound healing and is a potent inducer of anguogenesis. Due to its basic pH, the factor is also basic FGF (bFGF). Several different forms of the human protein exist ranging from 18-24 kDa in size due to the use of alternative start sites within the fgf-2 gene. It has a 55 percent amino acid residue identity to FGF1 and has potent heparin-binding activity. The growth factor is an extremely potent inducer of DNA synthesis in a variety of cell types from mesoderm and neuroectoderm lineages. It was originally named basic fibroblast growth factor based upon its chemical properties and to distinguish it from acidic fibroblast growth factor (FGF1).

Descripción
FGF2, also referred to as basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), is a growth factor involved in critical cellular processes, including angiogenesis, wound healing, and tissue repair It binds to FGF receptors (FGFRs) and activates pathways like Ras/MAPK and PI3K/AKT, which regulate cell proliferation, survival, and differentiation FGF2 is expressed in endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and smooth muscle cells, where it drives vascularization during tissue repair and development It promotes stem cell maintenance and supports neurogenesis by enhancing neuronal survival and regeneration Dysregulated FGF2 contributes to tumor growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis in cancers such as breast cancer and glioblastoma Targeting FGF2 signaling is a therapeutic strategy in cancer treatment, tissue regeneration, and ischemic conditions

FGF2 antibody
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members bind heparin and possess broad mitogenic and angiogenic activities. This protein has been implicated in diverse biological processes, such as limb and nervous system development, wound healing, and tumor growth. The mRNA for this gene contains multiple polyadenylation sites, and is alternatively translated from non-AUG (CUG) and AUG initiation codons, resulting in five different isoforms with distinct properties. The CUG-initiated isoforms are localized in the nucleus and are responsible for the intracrine effect, whereas, the AUG-initiated form is mostly cytosolic and is responsible for the paracrine and autocrine effects of this FGF.
