FGF acidic/FGF1, also known as ECGF and HBGF-1, is a secreted mitogen that stimulates the proliferation of all cells of mesodermal origin and many cells of neuroectodermal, ectodermal, and endodermal origin. It plays a number of roles in development, regeneration, and angiogenesis. FGF1 is released extracellularly as a disulfide-linked homodimer and is stored in complex with extracellular heparan sulfate. The association of FGF1 with heparan sulfate is a prerequisite for its subsequent interaction with FGF receptors. Internalized FGF1 can translocate to the cytosol and to the nucleus. Intracellular FGF1 functions as a survival factor by inhibiting p53 activity and proapoptotic signaling.

Q: What is the heparin binding activity of FGF and VEGF?
A: These proteins are not assayed for their ability to bind Heparin. More information about the FGF family of growth factors is available in this review article: Basilico, C. (1992) Adv. Can. Res. 59:115.
