What is Bradykinin?
Bradykinin is a nine-amino-acid vasoactive peptide generated from kininogen during tissue injury. It has been studied for roles in vasodilation, inflammation, fibroblast signaling, and repair-associated blood flow changes.
Key Benefits & Mechanisms
supports vasodilation
may improve local perfusion
modulates fibroblast activity
may support angiogenic signaling
Research Summary
Bradykinin signaling is deeply involved in the early phases of tissue injury and repair. Experimental work links it to vascular and matrix responses that can influence how soft tissues heal.

EGF
Human Epidermal Growth Factor
EGF is a small endogenous growth factor that drives epithelial cell migration and proliferation during tissue repair. It has been studied for burns, ulcers, and mucosal healing because it can accelerate re-epithelialization.
Recovery & HealingFGF2
Recombinant Human Fibroblast Growth Factor 2
FGF2 is a potent mitogen involved in angiogenesis, fibroblast expansion, and granulation tissue formation. It is widely studied in skin repair, ischemic tissue recovery, and chronic wound models.

Recombinant Human Platelet-Derived Growth Factor-BB
rhPDGF-BB is a dimeric growth factor that recruits fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells into the wound bed. It has a well-known role in chronic wound care, especially diabetic foot ulcers, where it supports granulation and closure.
Recovery & HealingPalifermin
Recombinant Human Keratinocyte Growth Factor (KGF, FGF7)
Palifermin is a truncated recombinant form of keratinocyte growth factor that protects and expands epithelial tissues. It is most recognized for mucosal protection, but the same biology is relevant to epithelial recovery and healing.
