FGF8  polyclonal, anti-human, mouse, rat, chicken, sheep, bovine, dog, pig

Protein Family: Cytokines, CAM Ligands

Pathway and Disease: Signal Transduction, Cell Motility, Cancers

Description:
Fibroblast growth factor 8 (FGF8) stimulates the growth of cells in an autocrine manner. FGF8 mediates hormonal action on the growth of cancer cells. Defects in FGF8 are a cause of idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH). IHH is defined as a deficiency of the pituitary secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone, which results in the impairment of pubertal maturation and of reproductive function.

Alternate Names: FGF-8, Fibroblast growth factor 8, Heparin-binding growth factor 8, HBGF-8, Androgen-induced growth factor, AIGF, FGF8
