Research Briefing：
The result of the studies demonstrated that bFGF promotes normal corneal and conjunctival epithelial cell proliferation and migration. In mild inflammation environment in vitro, bFGF prevents cell death caused by inflammatory cytokine and matrix production. Also, bFGF significantly ameliorated dry eye inflammation and tissue damage in the scopolamine-induced dry eye animal model, even better than a classical dry eye medication, sodium hyaluronate. Collectively, we revealed the role of bFGF not only in cell proliferation and migration of ocular surface and tissue repair, but also in controlling mild eye inflammation, which may provide therapeutic value of bFGF in treatment of dry eyes.

 

 
About bFGF

Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF, or FGF-2) is an active substance in trace amount which exists in mammals and human body. FGFs, an important member of the growth factor family, are cell signaling proteins that play a positive role in multiple cellular processes including proliferation, differentiation, cell survival, cell adhesion, motility, chemotaxis, neovasculature and homeostasis. The product(s) from Essex's FGF Technology Platform provides a therapeutic with balanced level of growth factor(s) to local damaged environment, making it a safe and effective treatment for human wounds and tissue disorders.
