Expression and localization of fibroblast growth factors and fibroblast growth factor receptors in the developing rat kidney [PDF]

Kidney International, 1999
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

CCDC80 suppresses high‐grade serous ovarian cancer migration via negative regulation of B7‐H3

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PAX8 is a lineage‐specific master regulator of transcription in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) progression. We show for the first time that PAX8 facilitates proliferation and metastasis by repressing the cell autonomous tumor suppressor CCDC80 and inducing B7‐H3 expression.

Structural insights into the potency and selectivity of covalent pan-FGFR inhibitors

Communications Chemistry, 2022
The human fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) are attractive targets for cancer therapy, but the structural basis for kinase targeting and gatekeeper mutations of covalent FGFR inhibitors are not fully understood.

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Fibroblast Growth Factors/Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptors as Targets for the Development of Anti-Angiogenesis Strategies [PDF]

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2007
Angiogenesis, the process of new blood vessel formation from pre-existing ones, plays a key role in various physiological and pathological conditions, including embryonic development, wound repair, inflammation, and tumor growth. The 1980s saw for the first time the identification, purification, and sequencing of the two prototypic heparin-binding ...

A novel quinazolinone insulin receptor inhibitor and its synergy with an EGFR inhibitor in glucose‐driven glioblastoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in

The utility of molecular genetic techniques in craniosynostosis cases associated with intellectual disability

Romanian Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2018
Molecular genetic testing in craniosynostosis leads to the detection of the mutations in the genes encoding fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR), providing information about the etiology of the genetic disorder.
