Further Information
Long Description:
Fibroblast growth factor 6, also known as FGF6, hst-2 or hst-1-related is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. 1,2 FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities, and are involved in a variety of biological processes, including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. FGF6 is the only known member of the FGF family whose expression is restricted to the muscle cell lineage during development, suggesting it may have a role in myogenesis.3 FGF6 has a dual function in muscle regeneration, stimulating myoblast proliferation/migration and muscle differentiation/hypertrophy.4
