What Does BFGF Stand For?

BFGF stands for Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor

Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor (BFGF) is a multifunctional cytokine that plays a critical role in various biological processes, including cell growth, differentiation, and tissue repair. It is primarily involved in angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, and is essential for wound healing and developmental processes. BFGF exerts its effects by binding to specific cell surface receptors, activating signaling pathways that regulate cellular functions. This growth factor is widely studied for its potential therapeutic applications in regenerative medicine, oncology, and cardiovascular diseases.
