## Abstract Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)‐2 regulates a variety of cellular functions, such as proliferation and differentiation, by binding to cell surface FGF receptors (FGFRs) in the presence of heparin proteoglycans. FGF‐2 is known as a heparin‐binding growth factor, but the localization of th
