Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 3 Is a Negative Regulator of Bone Growth
Endochondral ossification is a major mode of bone that occurs as chondrocytes undergo proliferation, hypertrophy, cell death, and osteoblastic replacement. We have identified a role for fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR-3) in this process by disrupting the murine Fgfr-3 gene to produce severe and progressive bone dysplasia with enhanced and prolonged endochondral bone growth. This growt...
متن کاملArp2/3 Is a Negative Regulator of Growth Cone Translocation
Arp2/3 is an actin binding complex that is enriched in the peripheral lamellipodia of fibroblasts, where it forms a network of short, branched actin filaments, generating the protrusive force that extends lamellipodia and drives fibroblast motility. Although it has been assumed that Arp2/3 would play a similar role in growth cones, our studies indicate that Arp2/3 is enriched in the central, no...
متن کاملFibroblast growth factor receptor 1 is a key regulator of early adipogenic events in human preadipocytes.
Cell number is an important determinant of adipose tissue mass, and the coordinated proliferation and differentiation of preadipocytes into mature lipid-laden adipocytes underpins the increased adipose tissue mass associated with obesity. Despite this, the molecular cues governing such adipose tissue expansion are poorly understood. We previously reported that fibroblast growth factor-1 (FGF-1)...
متن کاملcrouzon syndrome: a fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 gene mutation
crouzon syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant premature cranyosynostosis, caused by fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 gene mutation on chromosome 10. the predominant skull and facial malformations with potential compromise airway make the crouzon syndrome a demanding issue for anesthesiologists and surgeons, required dynamic team work. in this report we describe a child, a known case of crouz...
متن کاملFibroblast Growth Factor-1 vs. Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 in Ischemic Skin Flap Survival in a Rat Animal Model
BACKGROUND One of the main challenges in skin flap surgery is tissue ischemia and following necrosis. The present study compares the effects of fibroblast growth factors 1 and 2 on increasing cutaneous vasculature, improving ischemia, and preventing distal necrosis in ischemic skin flaps in rat model. METHODS Thirty rats were allocated into 3 groups (n=10) and 2×8 cm dorsal rando...
