Introduction

Recombinant human FGF-7 (KGF) protein is a high-quality recombinant protein produced for research use, supporting cell culture, organoid growth, and in vitro biological studies with reliable activity and consistency.

Background

Keratinocyte Growth Factor (KGF), also known as FGF7, is a paracrine growth factor that specifically stimulates epithelial and keratinocyte proliferation. It plays an important role in epithelial tissue repair, lung development, and barrier function, and is frequently used in epithelial and organoid culture systems. (PMID 15327889).
