Improved Production of Anti-FGF-2 Nanobody Using Pichia pastoris and Its Effect on Antiproliferation of Keratinocytes and Alleviation of Psoriasis.

Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2) is not only an angiogenic factor, but also a mitogen for epidermal keratinocytes. FGF-2 has been shown to be positively immunoreactive in the basal layer of psoriatic lesions. In previous work, we used the Escherichia coli (E.
