What did studies of epidermal growth factor + fibroblast growth factor find?

1

Studies of epidermal growth factor + fibroblast growth factor measured one outcome, cortical progenitor cell expansion.

1 study

  1. Epidermal growth factor + fibroblast growth factor increases cortical progenitor cell expansion in mouse cells (isolated SOX2+/Nestin+ cells).

    “displayed many stem cell features including the ability to expand rapidly in Epidermal Growth Factor/Fibroblast Growth Factor.”
