Background Information
FGF8, also named as AIGF and HBGF-8, belongs to the heparin-binding growth factors family. FGF8 stimulates growth of the cells in an autocrine manner. It mediates hormonal action on the growth of cancer cells. Defects in FGF8 are the cause of Kallmann syndrome type 6 (KAL6). Defects in FGF8 are a cause of idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH). The antibody is specific to FGF8.
