FGF2

Also found in: Acronyms.

FGF2

A gene on chromosome 4q26 that encodes fibroblast growth factor 2 of the FGF family, which bind heparin and have a broad range of cellular activities, including cell survival, division, differentiation and migration. FGF2 plays a key role in various processes, including limb and nervous system development, wound healing and tumour growth, as well as angiogenesis. It is expressed in normal ovarian tissue and in hepatocellular carcinoma, but not in normal liver cells. FGF2 interacts with FGF receptors FGFR1, -2, -3 and -4.

Taking into account the sequences recently published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) and the data base of the bovine genome sequence, specific primers were designed in order to amplify bovine gene coding regions GDF9, BMP15, FGF2, TGF[beta]-R1, BMPR-IB and FGFR2 using the online software Primer-BLAST and Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT) (Table 1).

Its alternatively spliced isoform FGFR2-IIIc, predominantly expressed in cells of the mesenchymal lineage, usually binds other members of the FGF family, such as FGF1 and FGF2 [20].
