Product Overview

Overview

Fibroblast Growth Factor 7 (FGF7), also known as Keratinocyte Growth Factor (KGF), is a protein that promotes the growth and proliferation of epithelial cells. It acts specifically on keratinocytes and is involved in the recovery and regeneration of skin and epithelial tissues. This recombinant FGF7 is produced through an E. coli expression system, offering stable activity and high purity for application in a wide range of research and formulation contexts.
