EGF human rec.
Recombinant human EGF – epithelial / stem-cell proliferation. · Recombinant cytokine / growth factor · RUO (CB-1101001)
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) has a profound effect on the differentiation of specific cells in vivo and is a potent mitogenic factor for a variety of cultured cells of both ectodermal and mesodermal origin. The precursor exists as a membrane-bound molecule that is proteolytically cleaved to generate a 53-amino-acid peptide hormone which stimulates cells to divide. It stimulates the proliferation of a wide range of epidermal and epithelial cells and is widely used as a supplement in cell and stem-cell culture.
