[FGFs]
[Fibroblast growth factors] FGF constitutes a family of related 16-18 kDa proteins controlling normal growth and differentiation of mesenchymal, epithelial, and neuroectodermal cell types during development (Böttcher and Niehrs, 2005). Homologous proteins have been found in a variety of species (Ito, 2007). For examples of FGF mimetic peptides see: canofins, dekafins, hexafins.
Two main groups of FGF are known. One type of FGF was isolated initially from brain tissue. It was identified by its proliferation-enhancing activities for murine fibroblasts (3T3 cells
