Target Information
Swine pro-epidermal growth factor (Pro-EGF) is a precursor protein that is activated to produce mature epidermal growth factor (EGF) in pigs. This protein plays a critical role in various physiological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and tissue repair. Pro-EGF is particularly important in the gastrointestinal tract, skin, and reproductive systems, where it contributes to the maintenance of tissue health and the regulation of cell turnover. Its activation leads to the stimulation of cell signaling pathways that are essential for growth and development in swine.
