A Glycopolymer Chaperone for Fibroblast Growth Factor-2

Bioconjugate Chemistry, 2004
Mono- and disaccharide-containing glycopolymers were synthesized by cyanoxyl-mediated polymerization of acrylamide with acrylate-derivatized mono- and disaccharides. We demonstrate that a glycopolymer bearing pendant, fully sulfated lactose units effectively replaces heparin and heparan sulfate as a molecular chaperone for fibroblast growth factor-2 ...

Ca2+Oscillations induced by fibroblast growth factor 2 inXenopusoocytes expressing fibroblast growth factor receptors

Molecular Membrane Biology, 1997
Double electrode voltage clamp technique was used to follow precisely the calcium signalling pathway activated by FGF receptors from a normal and a carcinogenous cell environment. Functional FGF receptors were expressed in Xenopus oocytes following either the injection of PFR1 cRNA from Pleurodeles, an homologue of the human FGFR1 mRNA, or breast ...

The discovery of basic fibroblast growth factor/fibroblast growth factor-2 and its role in haematological malignancies

Cytokine & Growth Factor Reviews, 2007
Basic fibroblast growth factor/fibroblast growth factor-2 is one of the best characterized of the pro-angiogenic cytokines. This review describes its history, as well as its role in tumor angiogenesis associated with haematological malignancies, as traced by the main contributions to the international medical literature.

TGF-β1 and fibroblast growth factor-1 modify fibroblast growth factor-2 production in type II cells

American Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology, 2000
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2, which stimulates DNA synthesis by type II cells in the lung, has been shown to be regulated by transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, an important inflammatory cytokine, in vascular epithelium. The goal of this study was to determine if FGF-2 production by alveolar type II cells is modulated by TGF-β1 or FGF-1, which ...

Expression of Fibroblast Growth Factor-1 and Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 in Normal Liver and Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Digestive Diseases and Sciences, 1998
This study was performed to examine the immunohistochemical expression of fibroblast growth factor-1 and fibroblast growth factor-2 in normal liver and a total of 31 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Reactivity for both types of angiogenic factor did not exist in any cellular component of normal liver.

Expression of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 by fibroblast growth factor 2 in cultured chick embryo chondrocytes

Cell Biology International, 2005
Although fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) and fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) both inhibit longitudinal bone growth, little is known about the relationship between FGF2 and FGFR3. Accordingly, the current study examined the expression of FGFR3 mRNA after the administration of FGF2 using cultured chondrocytes from day 17 chick embryos to ...

Engineering Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 (FGF2) Production in Cyanobacteria [PDF]

open access: possibleACS Synthetic Biology
The Fibroblast Growth Factor 2 (FGF2) is an important signaling protein that serves to activate a variety of biological processes in animal and human cells. The FGF2 comprises an uncommon β-barrel structure composed of β-pleated sheets and loops only. It functions as a multipurpose protein involved in cell growth, division, and repair.

[Fibroblast growth factor-2].

Ceskoslovenska fysiologie, 2005
Fibroblast growth factor-2 is a member of a large family of proteins that bind heparin and heparan sulfate and modulate the function of a wide range of cell types. FGF-2 occurs in several isoforms resulting from alternative initiations of traslation: an 18 kDa cytoplasmic isoform and four larger molecular weight nuclear isoforms (22, 22.5, 24 and 34 ...

Neutralization of Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 Reduces Intraarticular Adhesions

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2001
Adhesion is a serious complication after trauma or surgery. Because adhesion formation is essentially a fibrogenetic process, a series of growth factors are assumed to be involved in its development. If this is true, it may be possible that inhibition of the growth factor activity suppresses adhesion formation. The current study was conducted to verify

The Unconventional Secretory Machinery of Fibroblast Growth Factor 2

Traffic, 2011
Unconventional secretory proteins represent a subpopulation of extracellular factors that are exported from eukaryotic cells by mechanisms that do not depend on the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex. Various pathways have been implicated in unconventional secretion including those involving intracellular membrane‐bound intermediates and ...
