Mouse Fibroblast Growth Factor 8, Androgen Induced (FGF8) ELISA Kit-Sandwich

Fibroblast growth factor 8 (FGF8) is crucial for regulating embryonic development, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration. It is essential for the normal formation of the brain, eyes, ears, and limbs during embryogenesis, as well as for the development of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neuronal system. Additionally, FGF8 promotes neurite outgrowth in hippocampal cells and plays a pivotal role in mouse embryonic development. Research indicates that FGF8 is involved in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition of the embryo and is responsible for early organization and differentiation of the midbrain/diencephalon, pharynx, heart, urogenital system, and limbs. For instance, FGF8 expression is critical for limb and facial morphogenesis, and its absence can result in limb developmental defects.
