Keratinocyte Growth Factor (KGF), also known as FGF7, is a heparin-binding mitogen primarily produced by mesenchymal cells. It stimulates epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation via the FGFR2b receptor. The recombinant human KGF peptide typically follows a specific synthesis process involving solid-phase peptide synthesis or bacterial expression systems. Molecular formula: C184H296N56O58S6; CAS No.: 100020-00-4.
Strictly store at -20°C to maintain stability. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Clinical use requires precise dosing due to potential pro-tumorigenic effects in pre-existing malignancies. Handle with appropriate PPE to prevent inhalation or skin contact during manufacturing.
