Description: Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) [, ]are a family of multifunctional proteins, often referred to as 'promiscuous growth factors' due to their diverse actions on multiple cell types [, ]. FGFs are mitogens, which stimulate growth or differentiation of cells of mesodermal or neuroectodermal origin. The function of FGFs in developmental processes include mesoderm induction, anterior-posterior patterning, limb development, and neural induction and development. In mature tissues, they are involved in diverse processes including keratinocyte organisation and wound healing [, , , , , ]. FGF involvement is critical during normal development of both vertebrates and invertebrates, and irregularities in their function leads to a range of developmental defects [, , , ]. Fibroblast growth factors are heparin-binding proteins and interactions with cell-surface-associated heparan sulfate proteoglycans have been shown to be essential for FGF signal transduction. FGFs have internal pseudo-threefold symmetry (β-trefoil topology) []. There are currently over 20 different FGF family members that have been identified in mammals, all of which are structurally related signaling molecules [, ]. They exert their effects through four distinct membrane fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs), FGFR1 to FGFR4 [], which belong to the tyrosine kinase superfamily. Upon binding to FGF, the receptors dimerize and their intracellular tyrosine kinase domains become active [].This entry represents fibroblast growth factor 22 (FGF22), which plays a role in the fasting response, glucose homeostasis, lipolysis and lipogenesis, and has been shown to stimulate cell proliferation in vitro [, ]. FGF22 is expressed in skin, with low expression found in brain. In mouse FGF22 is preferentially expressed in the inner root sheath of the hair follicle, which suggests a role in hair development [].

FGF21 has been shown to protect animals from diet-induced obesity when overexpressed in transgenic mice. It also lowers blood glucose and triglyceride levels when administered to diabetic rodents [], suggesting it may exhibit the therapeutic characteristics necessary for effective treatment of diabetes. Treatment of animals with FGF21 results in increased energy expenditure, fat utilisation and lipid excretion []. FGF21 is most abundantly expressed in the liver, and also expressed in the thymus at lower levels [].

In rat embryos, FGF16 is detected predominantly in brown adipose tissue, where it shows significant mitogenic activity for primary brown adipocytes, mediated by activation of FGFR4 [].

FGF involvement is critical during normal development of both vertebrates and invertebrates, and irregularities in their function leads to a range of developmental defects [, , , ]. Fibroblast growth factors are heparin-binding proteins and interactions with cell-surface-associated heparan sulfate proteoglycans have been shown to be essential for FGF signal transduction. FGFs have internal pseudo-threefold symmetry (β-trefoil topology) []. There are currently over 20 different FGF family members that have been identified in mammals, all of which are structurally related signaling molecules [, ]. They exert their effects through four distinct membrane fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs), FGFR1 to FGFR4 [], which belong to the tyrosine kinase superfamily. Upon binding to FGF, the receptors dimerize and their intracellular tyrosine kinase domains become active [].This entry represents fibroblast growth factor 13 (FGF13), also known as fibroblast growth factor homologous factor 2. It is thought to be involved in nervous system development and function []. FGF13 has been shown to induce cell growth of lung fibroblasts and aortic smooth muscle cells, but has no effect on dermal vascular endothelial cells []. It also is thought to regulate voltage-gated sodium channels transport and function, and play a role in MAPK signaling []. The localisation and tissue-specific expression pattern of FGF13 has made it a possible candidate for familial cases of Borjeson-Forssman-Lehmann syndrome (BFLS) and other syndromal and nonspecific forms of X-linked mental retardation [].

Description: Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) [, ]are a family of multifunctional proteins, often referred to as 'promiscuous growth factors' due to their diverse actions on multiple cell types [, ]. FGFs are mitogens, which stimulate growth or differentiation of cells of mesodermal or neuroectodermal origin. The function of FGFs in developmental processes include mesoderm induction, anterior-posterior patterning, limb development, and neural induction and development. In mature tissues, they are involved in diverse processes including keratinocyte organisation and wound healing [, , , , , ].

Upon binding to FGF, the receptors dimerize and their intracellular tyrosine kinase domains become active [].This entry represents fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), which is secreted by osteoblasts and osteoclasts []. FGF23 acts on kidneys, where it decreases the expression of NPT2, a sodium-phosphate cotransporter in the proximal tubule []. FGF23 is responsible for phosphate metabolism, decreasing the reabsorption and increasing excretion of phosphate []. FGF23 is involved in the pathogenesis of three hypophosphatemic disorders; oncogenic osteomalacia (OOM), X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) and autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets (ADHR). These conditions are characterised by hypophosphatemia, decreased renal phosphate reabsorption, normal or low serum calcitriol concentrations and defective skeletal mineralisation [, , ].

The protein functions as a modifier of endothelial cell migration and proliferation, as well as an angiogenic factor. It acts as a mitogen for a variety of mesoderm- and neuroectoderm-derived cells in vitro, and is therefore thought to be involved in organogenesis [, , ]. In addition to interacting with FGFR1-4, FGF1 has also been shown to interact with casein kinase II subunits [], heat shock proteins []and acidic fibroblast growth factor intracellular-binding protein [].

This protein plays an important role in the regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and cell migration. FGF10 exhibits mitogenic activity for keratinizing epidermal cells, but essentially no activity for fibroblasts, which is similar to the biological activity of FGF7 []. Studies suggest FGF10 is required for embryonic epidermal morphogenesis including brain development, lung morphogenesis, and initiation of limb bud formation [, , ]. FGF10 is also implicated as a primary factor in the process of wound healing [, ]. FGF10 interacts with FGFR1, but has a higher affinity FGFR2 [, ].
