Adenoviral-mediated expression of antisense RNA to fibroblast growth factors disrupts murine vascular development.
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are expressed in the developing embryo and are postulated to regulate embryonic and vascular growth. The goal of this study was to elucidate the role of basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) in early murine embryonic cardiovascular development in the mouse embryo. Gestation day 7.5 embryos were harvested and placed in culture, and 12 hr later replication-defect...
متن کاملGene Expression Profiling during Murine Tooth Development
The aim of this study was to describe the expression of genes, including ameloblastin (Ambn), amelogenin X chromosome (Amelx), and enamelin (Enam) during early (pre-secretory) tooth development. The expression of these genes has predominantly been studied at post-secretory stages. Deoxyoligonucleotide microarrays were used to study gene expression during development of the murine first molar to...
متن کاملGrowth and Transcription Factors in Tooth Development
Odontogenesis is a complex embryonic process originated by the interaction between two main embryonic components, dental epithelium and ectomesenchyme. This ectomesenchymal interaction is mediated by growth and transcription factors controlling the different aspects of tooth development such as tooth initiation, enamel knot formation and/or cell proliferation and differentiation. The aim of thi...
متن کاملAntitumor activity of fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) for medulloblastoma may correlate with FGF receptor expression and tumor variant.
Members of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family, which normally control cerebellar neuronal maturation, may represent more natural and less toxic tools with which to target medulloblastoma (MB), an embryonal brain tumor thought to arise from cerebellar neuronal precursors. In support of this, we found previously basic FGF/FGF-2 can inhibit MB progression by inducing neuronal-like different...
متن کاملFibroblast growth factor (FGF) homologous factors share structural but not functional homology with FGFs.
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) interact with heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans and the extracellular domains of FGF cell surface receptors (FGFRs) to trigger receptor activation and biological responses. FGF homologous factors (FHF1-FHF4; also known as FGF11-FGF14) are related to FGFs by substantial sequence homology, yet their only documented interactions are with an intracellular kinase sc...
