Growth Factor Signaling Analysis

Meaning

Growth Factor Signaling Analysis is the detailed clinical evaluation of the complex communication pathways mediated by polypeptide hormones, known as growth factors, that regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, and tissue repair. This analysis focuses on key factors like Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1), Fibroblast Growth Factors (FGFs), and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF). Understanding the status of these signaling cascades is essential for assessing tissue regeneration capacity, metabolic health, and the potential for anabolic response.
