Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptors (FGFRs) and Noncanonical Partners in Cancer Signaling
Increasing evidence indicates that success of targeted therapies in the treatment of cancer is context-dependent and is influenced by a complex crosstalk between signaling pathways and between cell types in the tumor.

Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor Functions in Glioblastoma [PDF]
Glioblastoma is the most lethal brain cancer in adults, with no known cure. This cancer is characterized by a pronounced genetic heterogeneity, but aberrant activation of receptor tyrosine kinase signaling is among the most frequent molecular alterations in glioblastoma.

Fibroblast growth factor/fibroblast growth factor receptor system in angiogenesis [PDF]
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are a family of heparin-binding growth factors. FGFs exert their pro-angiogenic activity by interacting with various endothelial cell surface receptors, including tyrosine kinase receptors, heparan-sulfate proteoglycans, and integrins.

Receptor Specificity of the Fibroblast Growth Factor Family [PDF]
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are essential molecules for mammalian development. The nine known FGF ligands and the four signaling FGF receptors (and their alternatively spliced variants) are expressed in specific spatial and temporal patterns.

Roles of Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptors in Carcinogenesis [PDF]
Abstract The fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR) play essential roles both during development and in the adult. Upon ligand binding, FGFRs induce intracellular signaling networks that tightly regulate key biological processes, such as cell proliferation, survival, migration, and differentiation.

Signal transduction by fibroblast growth factor receptors [PDF]
The fibroblast growth factor family, with its prototype members acidic FGF (FGF-1) and basic FGF (FGF-2), binds to four related receptor tyrosine kinases, expressed on most types of cells in tissue culture. In many respects, the FGF receptors appear similar to other growth factor receptors. Thus, dimerization of receptor monomers upon ligand binding is

Targeting fibroblast growth factor receptors causes severe craniofacial malformations in zebrafish larvae [PDF]
Background and Objective A key pathway controlling skeletal development is fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and FGF receptor (FGFR) signaling. Major regulatory functions of FGF signaling are chondrogenesis, endochondral and intramembranous bone development.

The Role of Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) Signaling in Tissue Repair and Regeneration
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are a large family of secretory molecules that act through tyrosine kinase receptors known as FGF receptors. They play crucial roles in a wide variety of cellular functions, including cell proliferation, survival ...
