Characterization of the cholangiocarcinoma drug pemigatinib against FGFR gatekeeper mutants
Pemigatinib is an FDA-approved drug for the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma, but while it is known to target fibroblast growth factor receptors, its mechanism of action is still not fully understood.

Physiological Actions of Fibroblast Growth Factor-23
Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone suppressing phosphate reabsorption and vitamin D hormone synthesis in the kidney. At physiological concentrations of the hormone, the endocrine actions of FGF23 in the kidney are αKlotho ...

Fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 single nucleotide polymorphism Gly388Arg in head and neck carcinomas [PDF]
BACKGROUND Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is considered to be a progressive disease resulting from alterations in multiple genes regulating cell proliferation and differentiation like receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and members of the ...

Expression and localization of fibroblast growth factors and fibroblast growth factor receptors in the developing rat kidney [PDF]
Expression and localization of fibroblast growth factors and fibroblast growth factor receptors in the developing rat kidney.The permanent kidney, or metanephros, develops through a complex series of reciprocal inductive events and involves branching morphogenesis, tubulogenesis, angiogenesis, and tissue remodeling. Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are

Decoding the dual role of autophagy in cancer through transcriptional and epigenetic regulation
Transcriptional and epigenetic regulation controls autophagy, which exerts context‐dependent effects on cancer: Autophagy suppresses tumorigenesis by maintaining cellular homeostasis or promotes tumor progression by supporting survival under stress. In this “In a Nutshell” article, we explore the intricate mechanisms of the dual function of autophagy ...

Distinct molecular interactions mediate neuronal process outgrowth on non-neuronal cell surfaces and extracellular matrices. [PDF]
We have compared neurite outgrowth on extracellular matrix (ECM) constituents to outgrowth on glial and muscle cell surfaces. Embryonic chick ciliary ganglion (CG) neurons regenerate neurites rapidly on surfaces coated with laminin (LN), fibronectin (FN),

Fibroblast growth factor receptors, developmental corruption and malignant disease.
Fibroblast growth factors (FGF) are a family of ligands that bind to four different types of cell surface receptor entitled, FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4. These receptors differ in their ligand binding affinity and tissue distribution.

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.
