Background
Fibroblast Growth Factor 4 (FGF-4) is a growth factor predominantly expressed during embryonic development, playing a key role in limb development. In culture, FGF-4 has been shown to be an important growth factor for fibroblasts and endothelial cells. Human FGF-4 shares high homology and cross-reactivity with the mouse protein.
