Life sciences encompass a diverse range of scientific disciplines focused on the study of living organisms and their interactions with the environment. From basic life sciences (such as cell biology, genetics, immunology, and microbiology) to applied life sciences (such as disease research, multi-omics, and biotechnology), this broad field explores the fundamental processes of life and drives advancements in disease research, patient care, and our overall understanding of living organisms. Discover the endless possibilities of life sciences and their impact on shaping a healthier and more sustainable world.
Vascular Endothelial Cell Growth Factor (VEGF) is a secreted homodimeric protein secreted by a variety of vascularized tissues. The reported activities of VEGF include stimulation of endothelial cell growth, angiogenesis, and capillary permeability. Human VEGF is a 38.2 kDa homodimeric protein consisting of two 165 amino acid polypeptide chains.
Fibroblast Growth Factor-8 (FGF-8) is a heparin binding growth factor that stimulates the proliferation and activation of cells that express FGF receptors. Recombinant Human FGF-8 is a 22.4 kDa protein containing 193 amino residues.
Human BAFF (B-cell activating factor belonging to the TNF family) is a novel ligand in the TNF family. BAFF plays an important role as co-stimulator of B-cell proliferation and function. Recombinant human BAFF is a soluble 17.0 kDa protein containing 153 amino acid residues, comprising the TNF-like extracellular domain of BAFF.
Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) is a polypeptide growth factor which stimulates the proliferation of a wide range of epidermal and epithelial cells. Human EGF is a 6.2 kDa protein containing 53 amino acid residues.
Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) is a polypeptide growth factor, which stimulates the proliferation of a wide range of epidermal and epithelial cells. Recombinant murine EGF is a 6.2 kDa protein containing 54 amino acid residues.
Glucagon is a 3,5 kDa hormone secreted by the A cells of the Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas and is involved in regulation of glucose homeostasis thro µgh enhanced synthesis and mobilization of glucose in the liver, and regulation of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
GLP-1 is secreted from gut endocrine cells in response to nutrient ingestion and plays multiple roles in metabolic homeostasis.
