Background

Basic Fibroblast growth factor (FGFbasic), also known as bFGF, FGF2, FGF-β or HBGF-2, belongs to the FGF family. FGFbasic is involved in a number of biological processes including embryonic development and differentiation, neuron differentiation, survival, and regeneration, and the proliferation of cells of mesodermal origin and many cells of neuroectodermal, ectodermal, and endodermal origin (PMID 3272178, 3316527). FGFbasic is critical for human embryonic stem cells to remain in an undifferentiated state during cell culture (PMID 15782187).
