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.

Immunogen
E. coli-derived recombinant human FGF acidic/FGF1
Phe16-Asp155
Accession # P05230
Phe16-Asp155
Accession # P05230
Specificity
Detects human FGF acidic/FGF1 in direct ELISAs and Western blots. In direct ELISAs, approximately 100% cross-reactivity with recombinant mouse FGF acidic/FGF1 is observed.
Neutralizes the biological activity of rhFGF acidic/FGF1. It will also neutralize the biological activity of rh beta -ECGF and bovine FGF acidic/FGF1, although 2‑3 times the amount of IgG is required to neutralize bovine FGF acidic/FGF1 biological activity.
