Biological Activity
Description
EGF Protein, Rat is a potent epidermal growth factor, promotes epithelial proliferation and migration, and increases epithelial wound closure and shortens healing time.
Background
Epidermal Growth Factor is secreted by epithelial cells, promotes epithelial proliferation and migration in a variety of tissues, and increases epithelial wound closure and shortens healing time[1]. Epidermal Growth Factor plays a key role in skin development and homeostasis, shows a protective function in the epidermal barrier. Epidermal Growth Factor also displays an immunomodulatory activity in the inflamed skin tissue[2].
Verified Bioactivity
Measured in a cell proliferation assay using BALB/c 3T3 mouse fibroblasts. The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.05-0.3ng/mL.
