FGF-2 can stimulate smooth muscle cell growth, wound healing, and tissue repair. In addition, FGF-2 has been shown to regulate the generation of neurons and astrocytes from progenitor cells. FGF-2 are also involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth, and invasion. As a multifunctional cytokine, FGF-2 is first isolated from the pituitary. Later, it was identified from various cell types including cardiac myocytes, cardiac fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEndotoxin:\u0026lt;0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBiological significance and function\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFunctionally, \u003cstrong\u003eFGF\u003c\/strong\u003e mediates intercellular communication in immune and stress-response settings through receptor engagement and downstream transcriptional programs.
