Background
Fibroblast Growth Factors-8b (FGF-8b) is a 21.3 kDa member of the fibroblast Growth Factors with 183 amino acid residues. FGF-8 is an important role in the regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and cell migration. In embryogenesis function, FGF8 is necessary in limb, brain, eye and ear formation. FGF-8b having a more potent inductive activity due to higher affinity for Fgf receptors.
