In response to peripheral nerve lesion, synthesis of basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) increases in sensory ganglia and motoneurons. Here, we investigated the axotomy-induced regulation of FGF-2 and FGF receptor-1 (FGFR-1) expression in the autonomic nervous system using the sympathetic superio

Studies on epidermal-growth-factor-like-, fibroblast- and transforming growth factors suggested their implication in tumorigenesis involving effects on tumour-cell proliferation and migration. In human transitional-cell carcinomas (TCC), enhanced expression of TGF alpha and EGF receptors correlated
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 is a peptide growth factor that promotes the generation, differentiation, and survival of neurons and glial cells. In the CNS, astroglial cells are coupled in a region-specific manner by gap junctions consisting of connexin 43 (cx43). In the present study we have inv
The single-copy fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2) gene encodes four coexpressed isoforms of different molecular masses. The 18-kDa FGF-2 is primarily localized in the cytoplasm, whereas the higher molecular mass isoforms (HMW FGF-2) localize to the nucleus and nucleolus. The overexpression of eithe
