Preferred Label : Recombinant Fibroblast Growth Factor 6;
NCIt synonyms : FGF-6; FGF6; HBGF-6; HST-2;
NCIt definition : A recombinant therapeutic agent which is chemically identical to or similar to endogenous
fibroblast growth factor 6 (FGF-6). Because of the mitogenic effects of FGF-6 on fibroblasts
and endothelial cells and the stimulatory effects of FGF-6 on muscle stem cell migration,
therapeutic FGF-6 has a potential role in wound healing and muscle regeneration. (NCI04);
