Use heregulin-beta 1 in the growth and maintenance of human embryonic stem cells (Wang et al. Blood, 2007). Heregulin-beta 1, also known as neuregulin-1 (NRG-1), is a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family of growth factors and acts as a ligand for ErbB family receptor tyrosine kinases (Britsch et al. Genes Dev, 1998). Heregulin-beta 1 is expressed in neuronal cells and modulates cell growth and differentiation of the cells during development and wound healing (Mei & Xiong. Nat Rev Neurosci 2008).
