Fibroblast Growth Factor 8
Encoded by human FG8F Gene (FGF Family), alternative isoforms FGF-8A, FGF-8B, FGF-8E, and FGF-8F of secreted autocrine androgen-induced Fibroblast Growth Factor 8 may be involved in angiogenesis and/or act as an embryonic epithelial factor in midbrain and limb development, in organogenesis, in gastrulation, and in left-right axis determination. Additional isoforms may exist. (NCI Thesaurus)
