Role of Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 2 in Pancreatic Cancer: Potential Target for New Therapeutic Approach? [PDF]
, 2015 Fibroblast growth factors and their receptors play a key role in cell proliferation, migration and differentiation. Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) is involved in carcinogenesis and its altered expression has been shown in several tumors ...

Oncogenic fusion protein BCR-FGFR1 requires the breakpoint cluster region-mediated oligomerization and chaperonin Hsp90 for activation. [PDF]
, 2020 Mutation and translocation of fibroblast growth factor receptors often lead to aberrant signaling and cancer. This work focuses on the t(8;22)(p11;q11) chromosomal translocation which creates the breakpoint cluster region (BCR) fibroblast growth factor ...

Calcium mobilization and Na+/H+ antiport activation by endothelin in human skin fibroblasts [PDF]
, 1989 Endothelin (ET-1) has been shown to exert vasoconstrictor activity in vivo and mobilize Ca2+ in vascular smooth muscle cells in culture. In this paper we show that the human skin fibroblast exhibits specific receptors to ET-1 and that activation of these
