HOXB7 constitutively activates basic fibroblast growth factor in melanomas
TLDR
A key role for constitutive HOXB7 expression in melanoma cell proliferation via basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) mRNA is indicated and the results raise the possibility that growth factor genes are critical HOX target genes in other developmental and/or neoplastic cell systems.
Review of the Studies on the Anti-Tumoral Effect of Prunella vulgaris
  • W. Mak

TLDR
The aim of this article was to summarize on what molecular mechanisms, which these previous research found responsible for the anti-tumoral effect of PV.
Functional Roles of FGF Signaling in Early Development of Vertebrate Embryos
TLDR
This review discussed the functional roles of FGFs and their interacting partners as part of the gene regulatory network for germ layer specification, dorsal–ventral (DV), and anterior-posterior (AP) patterning, and briefly reviewed the regulatory molecules and pharmacological agents discovered that may allow modulation of F GF signaling in research.
The synthetic progesterone Norgestrel is neuroprotective in stressed photoreceptor‐like cells and retinal explants, mediating its effects via basic fibroblast growth factor, protein kinase A and glycogen synthase kinase 3β signalling
TLDR
The results indicate that the protective efficacy of Norgestrel is, at least in part, due to the bFGF‐mediated activation of the PKA pathway, with subsequent inactivation of GSK3β.
Altered molecular pattern of mucosal healing in Crohn's disease fibrotic stenosis.
TLDR
Fibrotic stenosis of CD may be the final result of an irreversible transformation of different cells into fibrogenic phenotype no longer inhibited by post-transcriptional regulation.
Why are breast cancer stem cells resistant to radiation
TLDR
The results suggest that low DNA repair capacity is responsible for the high radiosensitivity of these CSC-like cells.
FGF2 (fibroblast growth factor 2 (basic))
Review on FGF2 (fibroblast growth factor 2 (basic)), with data on DNA, on the protein encoded, and where the gene is implicated.
Gastric mucosal injury activates bFGF gene expression and triggers preferential translation of high molecular weight bFGF isoforms through CUG-initiated, non-canonical codons.

Nuclear Isoforms of Fibroblast Growth Factor 2 Are Novel Inducers of Hypophosphatemia via Modulation of FGF23 and KLOTHO*
TLDR
A novel mechanism of regulation of the FGF23-Pi homeostatic axis is revealed, causing Pi wasting, osteomalacia, and decreased BMD in TgHMW mice.

αβ lineage-specific expression of the α T cell receptor gene by nearby silencers
Activity of two different silencer elements of the chicken lysozyme gene can be compensated by enhancer elements.
TLDR
An inverse linear relationship between the transcriptional activity of the tested constructs and the potential inhibition by the silencer elements was found: weak transcription units can be strongly repressed, whereas strong transcriptionunits can be only weakly repressed.

Two distinct enhancers with different cell specificities coexist in the regulatory region of polyoma
Human basic fibroblast growth factor: nucleotide sequence and genomic organization.
TLDR
Southern blot analysis of human genomic DNA and mapping of the cloned gene shows that there is only one basic FGF gene, and all of the basic, heparin‐binding endothelial cell mitogens of similar amino acid composition that have been described must be products of this single gene.
Phorbol ester-inducible genes contain a common cis element recognized by a TPA-modulated trans-acting factor
A FOS protein is present in a complex that binds a negative regulator of MYC.
TLDR
It is reported that a negative regulator of the human proto-oncogene MYC comprises no more than 26 bp of DNA, with sequence that resembles the regulators of at least two other genes, and nuclear factors that interact with the regulator are described.
Regulation of multiple basic fibroblast growth factor messenger ribonucleic acid transcripts by protein kinase C activators.
TLDR
The human astrocytoma cell line U87-MG expressed two major basic fibroblast growth factor mRNA transcripts of 7.0 and 3.7 kilobase, and FGF mRNA levels were stimulated to a similar extent by platelet-derived growth factor or the synthetic diacylglycerol analog 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-rac glycerol at doses which stimulated DNA synthesis in these cells.
Human proto-oncogene c-jun encodes a DNA binding protein with structural and functional properties of transcription factor AP-1.
TLDR
It is demonstrated that the proto-oncogene product of c-jun interacts directly with specific target DNA sequences to regulate gene expression, and therefore it may now be possible to identify genes under the control ofc-jun that affect cell growth and neoplasia.
A single N-linked oligosaccharide at either of the two normal sites is sufficient for transport of vesicular stomatitis virus G protein to the cell surface
TLDR
The nonglycosylated G protein synthesized when both glycosylation sites were eliminated did not reach the cell surface, but did appear to reach a Golgi-like region, as determined by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy.
