Role of fibroblast growth factors in bone regeneration [PDF]
Bone is a metabolically active organ that undergoes continuous remodeling throughout life. However, many complex skeletal defects such as large traumatic bone defects or extensive bone loss after tumor resection may cause failure of bone healing ...

Fibroblast growth factors [PDF]
What are they? Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are a family of small (20–30kDa) intercellular signalling proteins which are frequently found to be glycosylated. The first draft of the human genome identified 29 potential FGF genes, and so far transcripts have been identified for 23 of them.

Fibroblast growth factors induce hepatic tumorigenesis post radiofrequency ablation [PDF]
Image-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is used to treat focal tumors in the liver and other organs. Despite potential advantages over surgery, hepatic RFA can promote local and distant tumor growth by activating pro-tumorigenic growth factor and ...

Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are a large group of small polypeptide growth factors, some of which play key roles in pulmonary biology. Their molecular sizes vary from 17 to 34 kDa and they share a wide range of amino acid homology with highly conserved gene structures and amino acid sequences.
