Regulation of human fibroblast insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding proteins by IGF-1 and cytokines, mechanisms of action and effects upon IGF bioactivity [PDF]
PhDThe insulin-like growth factors, IGF-I and IGF-II, are ubiquitous polypeptide molecules that have mitogenic and metabolic actions in a wide variety of cell types, and consequently play a major role in mammalian growth and development.

Regulation of lens regeneration by fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 [PDF]
Lens regeneration in vivo is restricted to some urodeles only. After removal of the lens, this remarkable event is initiated from the dorsal iris. The pigmented epithelial cells from the dorsal iris dedifferentiate and subsequently transdifferentiate to form the regenerating lens.

Anosmin-1 modulates fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 signaling in human gonadotropin-releasing hormone olfactory neuroblasts through a heparan sulfate-dependent mechanism [PDF]
Defects of either anosmin-1 or fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) are known to underlie hereditary Kallmann's syndrome (KS), a human disorder of olfactory and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neuronal ontogeny.

Fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 extracellular vesicle as novel therapy for osteoarthritis
Introduction Osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint condition that causes significant impairment of the chondrocyte. The gradual degradation of the cartilage lining of one or more freely moving joints, as well as persistent inflammation, are the causes of ...

Thyroid Hormone Activates Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor-1 in Bone [PDF]
Thyroid hormone (T3) and the T3 receptor (TR) alpha gene are essential for bone development whereas adult hyperthyroidism increases the risk of osteoporotic fracture. We isolated fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 (FGFR1) as a T3-target gene in osteoblasts by subtraction hybridization. FGFR1 mRNA was induced 2- to 3-fold in osteoblasts treated with T3

The binding of NCAM to FGFR1 induces a specific cellular response mediated by receptor trafficking [PDF]
Neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) associates with fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptor-1 (FGFR1). However, the biological significance of this interaction remains largely elusive.

Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor-1 Is Essential for In Vitro Cardiomyocyte Development [PDF]
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)/FGF receptor (FGFR) signaling plays a crucial role in mesoderm formation and patterning. Heartless mutant studies in Drosophila suggest that FGFR1, among the different FGFRs, may play a role in cardiogenesis. However, fgfr1 −/−
