Background technology

Fibroblast growth factor is to be a family of feature (and being also referred to as heparin binding growth factor (HBGF) thus) with the heparin-binding.In various tissues, find the expression of these proteinic different members, described being expressed under specified time and the spatial control.These protein are effective mitogen of the cell in mesoderm, ectoderm and entoderm source, and described cell comprises inoblast, cornea and vascular endothelial cell, granulocyte, adrenal cortical cell, chondrocyte, sarcoplast, vascular smooth muscle cell, lens epithelial cells, melanophore, keratinocyte, oligodendroglia, stellate cell, scleroblast and hemopoietic cell.

Every kind of member has and other member's eclipsed function, also has unique envelop of function.Except stimulating vascular endothelial cell proliferation, FGF-1 and 2 boths are endotheliocyte chemotaxiss, and FGF-2 has demonstrated and can make endotheliocyte penetrate basilar membrane.FGF-1 and 2 boths have the angiopoietic ability of stimulation.Another key character of these somatomedins is the ability that they promote wound healing.Many other members of FGF family have and FGF-1 and 2 similar activity, for example promote vascularization and wound healing.Several members of FGF family have demonstrated the differentiation of inducing mesoderm to form and regulate neuronal cell, adipocyte and Skeletal Muscle Cell.

Except these biologic activity in healthy tissues, hinted that FGF protein promotes cancer and sarcoma to take place by promoting tumor vessel to form, when their expression was out of control, it was as transforming protein matter.

FGF family is made up of the polypeptide of 8 structurally associateds at present: basic FGF, acid FGF, int 2, hstl/k-FGF, FGF-5, FGF-6, keratinocyte growth factor, AIGF (FGF-8), the neuroglia incitant is ascertained to be new heparin binding growth factor recently, it is culture supernatants purifying (Miyamoto from human glioma cells, M. etc., molecule and cytobiology, 13 (7): 4251-4259 (1993)).The gene of each peptide species is cloned and is checked order.Two member FGF-1 and FGF-2 are characterized with many titles, but modal be to be called as acidity and Prostatropin respectively.Normal gene product influences the general multiplication capacity of the cell in most of mesoderms and neuroderm source.They can form by the interior induction of vascular of body, and play an important role in may growing in early days (Burgess, W.H. and Maciag, T., bioid academic year comments, 58:575-606, (1989)).

The many above member who identifies of FGF family is also coupled on the identical acceptor, and by causing second messenger (message) in conjunction with these acceptors.
