This product is for research use only. It is not approved for use in humans, animals, or in vitro diagnostic procedures.
Fibroblast Growth Factor 9 (FGF-9) is one of the 23 known members of the FGF family. All FGF family members are heparin binding growth factors with a core 120 amino acid FGF domain that allows for a common tertiary structure. FGF-9 targets glial cells, astrocytes cells and other cells that express the FGF receptor 1c, 2c, 3b, 3c, and 4.
