FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth, and invasion. It has been shown in vitro that FGF18 is able to induce neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells. Studies of the similar proteins in mouse and chick suggested that this protein is a pleiotropic growth factor that stimulates proliferation in a number of tissues, most notably the liver and small intestine. Experiment datas identified FGF18 as a selective ligand for FGFR3 in limb bud mesenchymal cells, which suppressed proliferation and promoted their differentiation and production of cartilage matrix. FGF18 appears to regulate cell proliferation and differentiation positively in osteogenesis and negatively in chondrogenesis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eConcentration\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eActivity\u003c\/b\u003e:Not validated for activity\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSequence\u003c\/b\u003e:Met1-Ala207\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePurity\u003c\/b\u003e: \u0026gt; 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormulation\u003c\/b\u003e:Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.\u003cbr\u003eNormally 5%-8% trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.\u003cbr\u003ePlease refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReconstitution\u003c\/b\u003e:It is recommended that sterile water be added to the vial to prepare a stock solution of 0.5 mg\/mL.
