Fibroblast growth factors and their receptors

open access: yesBiochemistry and Cell Biology, 1997
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) represent a group of polypeptide mitogens eliciting a wide variety of responses depending upon the target cell type. The knowledge of the cell surface receptors mediating the effects of FGFs has recently expanded remarkably.

Fibroblast Growth Factors

open access: yes, 2006
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.

Fibroblast growth factors

British Medical Bulletin, 1989
The existence of fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) was proposed over 40 years ago to account for the ability of tissue extracts to stimulate fibroblast proliferation. In the 1970s it became clear that preparations containing FGF activity were in fact pleiotropic, affecting the growth and function of a wide variety of mesenchymal, endocrine and neural ...

Fibroblast growth factors in skeletal development.

Current Topics in Developmental Biology, 2019
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and their receptors (FGFRs) are expressed throughout all stages of skeletal development. In the limb bud and in cranial mesenchyme, FGF signaling is important for formation of mesenchymal condensations that give rise to ...

Fibroblast growth factor-2

The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2000
Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) is a heparin-binding growth factor which occurs in several isoforms resulting from alternative initiations of translation: an 18 kD cytoplasmic isoform and four larger molecular weight nuclear isoforms (22, 22.5, 24 and 34 kD).

Fibroblast Growth Factors and Their Inhibitors

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2000
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are members of a family of polypeptides synthesized by a variety of cell types during the processes of embryonic development and in adult tissues. FGFs have been detected in normal and malignant cells and show a biological profile that includes mitogenic and angiogenic activity with a consequent crucial role in cell ...

Fibroblast Growth Factors, Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptors, Diseases, and Drugs

Recent Patents on Cardiovascular Drug Discovery, 2006
Maintenance of endothelial cells (ECs), the building blocks of the vascular tree, is a presumed function of fibroblast growth factors (FGFs). In particular, the two prototypic members of FGF family, namely FGF1 and FGF2, due to their potent mitogenic and pro-migratory activities, have the ability to induce metabolic and phenotypic changes in ECs that ...

Inhibition of fibroblast growth factors

Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 1996
The potential roles of members of the fibroblast growth factor family in tumor angiogenesis and metastasis and their mechanisms of release from cells are discussed. Furthermore, we review methods of therapeutic targeting of these polypeptides. In particular, we focus on the possibility to inhibit fibroblast growth factors with drugs that mimic heparin ...
