X-ray crystal structure of human acidic fibroblast growth factor.
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are mitogenic and chemotactic agents for a wide variety of cell types and play a primary role in the regulation of angiogenesis. Angiogenesis is involved in a variety of critical physiological events including organogenesis, wound healing, ischemic collateral circulation, and solid tumor growth. High-resolution structural information is key to understanding the ...
متن کاملEnergetics of heparin binding to human acidic fibroblast growth factor.
The binding of low-molecular-weight heparin to an amino-terminal-truncated, 132-amino-acid, human acidic fibroblast growth factor form has been studied by isothermal titration calorimetry. This technique yields values for the enthalpy change and equilibrium constant, from which the Gibbs energy and entropy change are also calculated. Experiments in different buffers and pH values show that the ...
متن کاملSequence-tagged site (STS) content mapping of human chromosomes: theoretical considerations and early experiences.
The magnitude of the effort required to complete the human genome project will require constant refinements of the tools available for the large-scale study of DNA. Such improvements must include both the development of more powerful technologies and the reformulation of the theoretical strategies that account for the changing experimental capabilities. The two technological advances described ...
متن کامل(Acidic and Basic Fibroblast) Growth Factor Gene Expression in Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells1
Vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation is regarded as a key early event in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Heparin-binding growth factor (HBGF)1 and HBGF-2, also referred to as acidic and basic fibroblast growth factor, are potent mitogens for human vascular smooth muscle cells. These cells coexpress HBGF-1 and HBGF-2 and thus represent a vessel wall source for both polypeptides. In thi...
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...
