Toward FGF2 reduction in cultured meat media: polyphenol salts enhance growth and differentiation of bESC aggregates [PDF]
Recombinant growth factors, particularly fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2), are major cost drivers in the production of cultured meat. In this study, we investigated the potential of polyphenol salts to reduce reliance on FGF2 in media supporting the ...

Effects of Thyroxine Exposure on Osteogenesis in Mouse Calvarial Pre-Osteoblasts [PDF]
The incidence of craniosynostosis is one in every 1,800-2500 births. The gene-environment model proposes that if a genetic predisposition is coupled with environmental exposures, the effects can be multiplicative resulting in severely abnormal phenotypes.

Seminal plasma and prostaglandin E2 up-regulate fibroblast growth factor 2 expression in endometrial adenocarcinoma cells via E-series prostanoid-2 receptor-mediated transactivation of the epidermal growth factor receptor and extracellular signal-regulated kinase pathway [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) has been shown to modulate angiogenesis and tumour progression via the E-series prostanoid-2 (EP2) receptor. Endometrial adenocarcinomas may be exposed to endogenous PGE(2) and exogenous PGE(2), present at high ...

Enhancing the Efficacy of Stem Cell Therapy with Glycosaminoglycans
Summary: Human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) therapy offers significant potential for osteochondral regeneration. Such applications require their ex vivo expansion in media frequently supplemented with fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2). Particular heparan

Multiple Therapeutic Applications of RBM-007, an Anti-FGF2 Aptamer
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays a pivotal role in angiogenesis, but is not the only player with an angiogenic function. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2), which was discovered before VEGF, is also an angiogenic growth factor.

The Use of Human Serum Samples to Study Malignant Transformation: A Pilot Study
Obesity and excess adiposity account for approximately 20% of all cancer cases; however, biomarkers of risk remain to be elucidated. While fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2) is emerging as an attractive candidate biomarker for visceral adipose tissue mass,
