| Endotoxin Level | <0.02 EU per 1 ug of the protein as determined by the LAL method. |
| Shipping | Shipped at ambient temperature. |
| Stability & Storage | 12 months from date of receipt at -20°C to -70°C, lyophilized powder. 3 months at -20°C to -70°C under sterile conditions after reconstitution. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Reconstitution | Reconstitute at 25 µg/mL in sterile PBS with 0.1% BSA. |
| Target Function | Fibroblast Growth Factor 10 (FGF-10) is a protein involved in various developmental processes, particularly in embryogenesis and tissue regeneration. FGF-10 promotes branching morphogenesis of branched structures in several organs, including lungs, salivary glands, skin, pancreas, and mammary glands. Additionally, FGF-10 stimulates angiogenesis in during embryonic development, the maintenance of stem cell populations and facilitates tissue repair. FGF-10 primarily binds to FGF Receptor 2B (FGFR2B). |
| Tissue Specificity | Lungs, salivary glands, skin, pancreas, inner ear, prostate and mammary glands. |
| Cellular Localization | Secreted protein |
| Involvement In Disease | Aberrant FGF-10 signaling has been implicated in several lung diseases, including pulmonary fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and lung cancer. Dysregulated FGF-10 expression or signaling pathways can disrupt lung development and repair processes. Elevated FGF-10 expression or aberrant activation of FGF receptors (FGFRs) have been implicated in pancreatic, breast and prostate cancer tumor growth and metastasis. |
