FGF basic/FGF2/bFGF antibody in Human Ovarian Cancer Tissue by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

FGF basic/FGF2/bFGF in Human Ovarian Cancer Tissue.

FGF basic/FGF2/bFGF was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human ovarian cancer tissue using Human FGF basic/FGF2/bFGF Biotinylated Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # BAF233) at 10 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue).

FGF basic/FGF2/bFGF antibody in Human Ovary by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

FGF basic/FGF2/bFGF in Human Ovary.

FGF basic/FGF2/bFGF was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human ovarian array using Human FGF basic/FGF2/bFGF Biotinylated Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # BAF233) at 10 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Lower panel shows a lack of labeling if primary antibodies are omitted and tissue is stained only with secondary antibody followed by incubation with detection reagents.

Background: FGF basic/FGF2/bFGF

FGF basic/FGF2/bFGF is a growth factor that functions in angiogenesis, wound healing, tissue repair, learning and memory, and the morphogenesis of heart, bone, and brain. It is upregulated in response to inflammatory stimuli and in many tumors. FGF basic/FGF2/bFGF binds to FGFR1c and 2c. Its bioactivity is modulated by a number of other binding partners including heparin, Integrin alpha V beta 3, soluble FGFR1, FGF-BP, free gangliosides, Thrombospondin, Pentraxin 3/TSG-14, Fibrinogen, alpha 2-Macroglobulin, PDGF, and CXCL4/PF4. These molecules act as cellular coreceptors or adhesion partners, extracellular matrix decoys or reservoirs, and soluble scavengers or chaperones. In particular, the interaction of FGF basic/FGF2/bFGF with cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) is required for the binding and activation of FGF receptors.
