Immunolocalization of HB-EGF in Human Skin by Streptavidin-Peroxidase (HRP) Conjugate Method

EGF family growth factors consists of growth factors, such as transforming growth factor (TGF)-a, heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HB-EGF), amphiregulin (AR) and epiregulin, autocrine growth factors in normal human keratinocytes. HB-EGF is mitogen for epithelial cells and like other members o...
