The Objective of this study was to identify the association of mutation of fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1), FGFR2 genes with syndromic as well as non-syndromic craniosynostosis in Indian population.Retrospective analysis of our records from January 2008 to December 2012 was done.

Cranial sutures are unossified connective tissue structures between the cranial bones, which allow expansion of these bones during development. Premature ossification of these structures is called craniosynostosis.

Regulation of Fibroblast Growth Factor 2 and Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptors by Transforming Growth Factor β in Human Osteoblastic MG-63 Cells [PDF]
Abstract Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2) and its receptors (FGFRs) are important regulators of bone cell function. Although FGF-2 is a major modulator of bone cell function, its expression and regulation in human osteoblasts have not been investigated.

Fibroblast Growth Factor-2-induced Signaling through Lipid Raft-associated Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor Substrate 2 (FRS2) [PDF]
The plasma membrane is not homogeneous but contains specific subcompartments characterized by their unique lipid and protein composition. Based on their enrichment in various signaling molecules, these membrane microdomains are recognized to be sites of localized signal transduction for a number of extracellular stimuli.

Many organs in vertebrates are left-right asymmetrical located. For example, liver is at the right side and stomach is at the left side in human. Fibroblast growth factor (Fgf) signaling is important for left-right asymmetry.

Parathyroid Hormone Regulates the Expression of Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 mRNA and Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor mRNA in Osteoblastic Cells [PDF]
Abstract We examined the effect of parathyroid hormone (PTH) on basic fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) and FGF receptor (FGFR) expression in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells and in neonatal mouse calvariae. Treatment of MC3T3-E1 cells with PTH(1–34) (10–8M) or forskolin (FSK; 10–5M) transiently increased a 7 kb FGF-2 transcript with a peak ...

Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions are critical for the formation of gastrointestinal buds such as the cecum from the midgut, but the mechanisms regulating this process remain unclear. To investigate this problem, we have studied the temporal and spatial expression of key genes known to orchestrate branching morphogenesis.

Increase Fibroblast Activation Protein-α, but not Lowering of FGF Receptor and/or Co-Receptor, Causes Increase in Fibroblast Growth Factor-21 in T2D Independent on Diabetes Duration [PDF]
Background: Diabetes mellitus is a major global public health issue. T2DM patients are associated with increased Fibroblast growth Factor 21 (FGF21).
