Ligand‐binding specificity of human fibroblast growth factor receptor‐3 IIIc [PDF]
Earlier studies indicated that human fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR)‐3 IIIc was activated equally well by both FGF‐1 and FGF‐2. In contrast, murine FGFR‐3 IIIc was preferentially activated by FGF‐1. To address this issue, we determined the ligand‐binding specificity of human FGFR‐3 IIIc in comparison with human FGFR‐1 IIIc.

Fibroblast growth factor modulates mast cell recruitment in a murine model of prostate cancer [PDF]
Mast cells are important modifiers of prostate tumor microenvironment. The fibroblast growth factor/fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGF/FGFR) system plays a non-redundant autocrine/paracrine role in the growth, vascularization and progression of ...

Fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling in hereditary and neoplastic disease: biologic and clinical implications. [PDF]
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and their receptors (FGFRs) are transmembrane growth factor receptors with wide tissue distribution. FGF/FGFR signaling is involved in neoplastic behavior and also development, differentiation, growth, and survival.

Role of growth factors in the pathogenesis of tissue fibrosis in systemic sclerosis. [PDF]
The most severe clinical and pathologic manifestations of systemic sclerosis (SSc) are the result of a fibrotic process characterized by the excessive and often progressive deposition of collagen and other connective tissue macromolecules in skin and ...
