Expression of a Functional Recombinant Human Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor from Transgenic Rice Seeds
Basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) is an important member of the FGF gene family. It is widely used in clinical applications for scald and wound healing in order to stimulate cell proliferation. Further it is applied for inhibiting stem cell differentiation in cultures. Due to a shortage of plasma and low expression levels of recombinant rbFGF in conventional gene expression systems, we exp...
متن کاملRole of Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 in Biology of Glucagon
A new report in this issue of Diabetes provides evidence that at least some metabolic actions of glucagon may be mediated by fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21). Habegger et al. (1) report that native glucagon raises plasma FGF21 levels in human subjects, confirming the report by Arafat et al. (2). They also find that a synthetic glucagon receptor agonist (IUB288) upregulates FGF21 expression i...
متن کاملTranscriptional Regulation of Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 Expression
Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is an attractive target for treating metabolic disease due to its wide-ranging beneficial effects on glucose and lipid metabolism. Circulating FGF21 levels are increased in insulin-resistant states; however, endogenous FGF21 fails to improve glucose and lipid metabolism in obesity, suggesting that metabolic syndrome is an FGF21-resistant state. Therefore, tra...
متن کاملEffects of fibroblast growth factor 21 on the heart.
Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a novel polypeptide ligand that has been shown to be involved in several physiological and pathological processes including regulation of glucose and lipids as well as reduction of arteriosclerotic plaque formation in the great vessels. It has also been shown to exert cardioprotective effects in myocardial infarction, cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury, c...
متن کاملFibroblast growth factor 21 and exercise-induced hepatic mitochondrial adaptations.
Exercise stimulates hepatic mitochondrial adaptations; however, the mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here we tested whether FGF21 plays an obligatory role in exercise induced hepatic mitochondrial adaptations by testing exercise responses in FGF21 knockout mice. FGF21 knockout (FGF21-KO) and wild-type (WT) mice (11-12 wk of age) had access to voluntary running wheels for exercise (EX) or rema...
