Recombinant Fibroblast Growth Factor 6
A recombinant therapeutic agent which is chemically identical to or similar to endogenous fibroblast growth factor 6 (FGF-6). Because of the mitogenic effects of FGF-6 on fibroblasts and endothelial cells and the stimulatory effects of FGF-6 on muscle stem cell migration, therapeutic FGF-6 has a potential role in wound healing and muscle regeneration.
