Fibroblast growth factor 4 is a protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF family members possess broad mitogenic and cell survival activities and are involved in a variety of biological processes including embryonic development, cell growth, morphogenesis, tissue repair, tumor growth and invasion. This gene was identified by its oncogenic transforming activity.This gene and FGF3, another oncogenic growth factor, are located closely on chromosome 11. Co-amplification of both genes was found in various kinds of human tumors. Studies on the mouse homolog suggested a function in bone morphogenesis and limb development through the sonic hedgehog (SHH) signaling pathway.
Mouse Fibroblast growth factor 4 (FGF4) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate FGF4 in samples. An antibody specific for FGF4 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyFGF4 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for FGF4 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of FGF4 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
