Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The events which led to the isolation of the fibroblast growth factor are described. Its impact on the development of new cell models which have been used for studies as diverse as the control of cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and cell transplantation have been reviewed.
