Description
FGF7p is a small molecule peptide and a potential bladder protector. FGF7p can activate downstream signaling pathways of FGFR2 in the urinary tract epithelium (pFRS2α, pAKT and pERK). FGF7p alleviates cyclophosphamide induced apoptosis and tissue damage in urinary tract epithelial cells by activating AKT and its downstream anti apoptotic targets (pBAD, pS6/mTORC1). FGF7p is commonly used in the study of inflammatory conditions[1]
