Anti-Fibroblast growth factor 2 Antibody

FGF2 (basic fibroblast growth factor, bFGF) is a heparin-binding growth factor that drives proliferation, migration, and angiogenic signaling through FGFR-mediated pathways. This rabbit polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com is raised against FGF2 and supplied at 100 µg in an unconjugated format, ready for direct labeling in user-developed detection workflows.

Validated applications include western blot analysis of endogenous FGF2 in human and mouse lysates, and immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections to localize FGF2 expression during development, tumor angiogenesis, wound repair, and stem cell maintenance studies. As a polyclonal preparation, the antibody binds multiple epitopes on FGF2, which can strengthen signal on masked epitopes in fixed tissue and on denatured target in western blots.

The unconjugated format lets researchers pair the antibody with HRP, biotin, or fluorophore chemistries of their choice. Confirmed reactivity against both human and mouse FGF2 supports comparative work across patient samples and rodent disease models in cardiovascular, neurobiology, and cancer research programs.
