The role of fibroblast growth factor signaling during superstructure development and in muscle-bone crosstalk

open access: yes, 2021
Killian, Megan L.The musculoskeletal system depends on mechanical load from skeletal muscle to form bone and respond to motion. Bone ridges are skeletal superstructures found on the periosteal surface of bone and are typically where tendons attach muscle

Essential growth factor receptors for fibroblast homeostasis and activation: Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor (FGFR), Platelet Derived Growth Factor Receptor (PDGFR), and Transforming Growth Factor β Receptor (TGFβR) [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research
Fibroblasts are cells of mesenchymal origin that are found throughout the body. While these cells have several functions, their integral roles include maintaining tissue architecture through the production of key extracellular matrix components, and ...

Fibroblast growth factor 2 control of vascular tone [PDF]

open access: yesNature Medicine, 1998
Vascular tone control is essential in blood pressure regulation, shock, ischemia-reperfusion, inflammation, vessel injury/repair, wound healing, temperature regulation, digestion, exercise physiology, and metabolism. Here we show that a well-known growth factor, FGF2, long thought to be involved in many developmental and homeostatic processes ...

A Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase/Phospholipase Cgamma1 Pathway Regulates Fibroblast Growth Factor-Induced Capillary Tube Formation

open access: yes, 2009
Background: The fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are key regulators of embryonic development, tissue homeostasis and tumour angiogenesis. Binding of FGFs to their receptor(s) results in activation of several intracellular signalling cascades including ...

Fibroblast growth factor-2 alters the nature of extinction [PDF]

open access: yesLearning & Memory, 2011
These experiments examined the effects of the NMDA-receptor (NMDAr) antagonist MK801 on reacquisition and re-extinction of a conditioned fear that had been previously extinguished before injection of fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2) or vehicle. Recent findings have shown that relearning and re-extinction, unlike initial learning and extinction, do not

Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 Signaling in Neurogenesis and Neurodegeneration [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neuroimmune Pharmacology, 2013
Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2), also known as basic FGF, is a multi-functional growth factor. One of the 22-member FGF family, it signals through receptor tyrosine kinases encoding FGFR1-4. FGF2 activates FGFRs in cooperation with heparin or heparin sulfate proteoglycan to induce its pleiotropic effects in different tissues and organs, which include

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Fibroblast growth factor 10 attenuates advanced liver fibrosis through hepatocyte fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 signalling

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine
Background Metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and advanced fibrotic stages are significant contributors to cirrhosis and liver‐related mortality, yet no therapies directly target fibrosis in the later stages of the disease ...
