Fibroblast Growth Factor-8 (FGF-8) is a heparin binding growth factor belonging to the FGF family. Proteins of this family playa central role during prenatal development and postnatal growth and regeneration of a variety of tissues, by promoting cellularproliferation and differentiation. There are 4 known alternate spliced forms of FGF8; FGF8A, FGF-8B, FGF-8E and FGF-8F.The human and murine FGF8 A and B are identical unlike human and mouse FGF8 E and F are 98% identical. FGF-8 targetsmammary carcinoma cells and other cells expressing the FGF receptors. MW: 28.1kDa. Purity > 97% by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses
