Fibroblast growth factor 8;Androgen-induced growth factor;Heparin-binding growth factor 8;AIGF;HBGF-8;FGF-8B

Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting.It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/ml.Dissolve the lyophilized protein in ddH2O.Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks.Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days.Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months

Fibroblast growth factor 8 (FGF?8) is a member of the fibroblast growth factor family. It is discovered as a growth factor essential for the androgen-?dependent growth of mouse mammary carcinoma cells. Mouse FGF?8b shares 100% aa identity with human FGF?8b. FGF?8 is widely expressed during embryogenesis, and mediates epithelial?-mesenchymal transitions. It plays an important role in the regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and cell migration. It is required for normal brain, eye, ear, limb development during embryogenesis and normal development of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neuronal system.
