Mimicking the Bioactivity of Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 Using Supramolecular Nanoribbons
ACS Biomaterials Science & Engineering, 2017 Fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) is a multifunctional growth factor that has pleiotropic effects in different tissues and organs. In particular, FGF-2 has a special role in angiogenesis, an important process in development, wound healing, cell survival ...
