1. FGF-2, TGFβ-1, PDGF-A and respective receptors expression in pleomorphic adenoma myoepithelial cells: an in vivo and in vitro study
Myoepithelial cells have an important role in salivary gland tumor development, contributing to a low grade of aggressiveness of these tumors. Normal myoepithelial cells are known by their suppressor function presenting increased expression of extracellular matrix genes and protease inhibitors. The importance of stromal cells and growth factors during tumor

2. Papel da via lkaros-FGFR4 na evolução pós-cirúrgica dos pacientes com doença de Cushing / Ikaros-FGFR4 pathway: role in the postoperative outcome of Cushings disease
Introduction: The mechanisms involved in the molecular pathogenesis of corticotroph pituitary tumors are complex, heterogeneous and in most cases remain unknown. Changes in the expression of components of Ikaros (Ik) pathway, such as receptor 4 of fibroblast growth factor (FGFR4), have been detected in pituitary tumors including corticotropinomas. Imbalance

3. FGF2 species of 18 and 22.5 kDa: paracrine molecular signaling and biological functions / FGF2 de 18kDa e de 22,5kDa: sinalização molecular parácrina e funções biológias
FGF2 (Fibroblast Growth Factor 2), the founder of the FGF family, has regulatory functions in mitogenesis, differentiation, morphogenesis and tissue repair. Multiple FGF2 molecular species, sharing a C-terminal sequence of 155 amino acids, are translated from different iniciation sites of the same mRNA. The smaller, the FGF2-18kD, is extracellularly released

4. Análise do número de cópias dos genes IGFIR, SF1 e FGFR4 em tumores adrenocorticais de crianças e adultos / Analysis of copy number variations of IGF1R, SF1 and FGFR4 genes in adrenocortical tumors from children and adults
Introduction: A high incidence of adrenocortical tumors in children and adults has been observed in Southern and Southeastern regions of Brazil. Overexpression of IGF1R, SF1 and FGFR4 genes have been described in adrenocortical tumors. Despite of overexpression be a common event in several neoplasias, the molecular mechanism implicated in this upregulation r

5. Gene expression and cell behavior study in cells from individuals with syndromic craniosynostosis / Estudo de expressão gênica e de comportamento celular em células de indivíduos portadores de craniossinostoses sindrômicas
Um dos grupos de doenças mais importante que acomete o desenvolvimento da caixa craniana humana é o das craniossinostoses, caracterizado pelo fechamento prematuro de uma ou mais suturas cranianas. Entre as formas mendelianas das craniossinostoses sindrômicas, mutações dominantes em FGFR2 são uma das causas mais frequentes e estão associadas às síndr

6. Expressão de fatores angiogênicos em corpo lúteo cíclico e superovulado de búfalas / Expression of angiogenic factors in cyclic and superovulated bufallo corpus luteum
Biotechniques can be an effective way of improving reproduction efficiency and enhancing the production of genetically superior animals. The superovulatory treatment is a common technique aiming to spread desired genetical material, although its use in buffalos still presents limitations, mainly the low embryo recovery rate. The corpus luteum (CL) is a tempo

7. REGULAÇÃO DA EXPRESSÃO DO RECEPTOR AT2 E EFEITO DA ANGIOTENSINA II SOBRE A EXPRESSÃO DE GENES ENVOLVIDOS NO DESENVOLVIMENTO FOLICULAR E OVULAÇÃO EM CÉLULAS DA GRANULOSA DE BOVINOS / REGULATION OF AT2 RECEPTORS IN BOVINE GRANULOSA CELLS, AND EFFECTS OF ANGIOTENSIN II ON GENES INVOLVED IN FOLLICLE DEVELOPMENT AND OVULATION
The objective of this study was to investigate the factors controling the expression of angiotensin II (AngII) receptors and to determine the physiological role of AngII in granulosa cells. The AGTR2 receptor was localized in granulosa (and theca) cells from follicles of different sizes. Bovine ovaries were collected at a local abattoir and small follicles (

8. Immunolocalization of VEGF, bFGF and their receptors in the bovine placenta and influence of these growth factors on progesterone production from placental cells in culture / Imunolocalização do VEGF, bFGF e seus receptores na placenta bovina e influência destes fatores sobre a produção de progesterona pelas células placentárias em cultura
Placental establishment and function are dependent on intense vascularization. Placental vasculogenesis and angiogenesis are modulated by several factors, including VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) and bFGF (basic fibroblast growth factor). Although the role of VEGF and bFGF during vascularization is already well established, some studies have indic

9. Stimulation of proliferation of a human osteosarcoma cell line by exogenous acidic fibroblast growth factor requires both activation of receptor tyrosine kinase and growth factor internalization.
U2OS Dr1 cells, originating from a human osteosarcoma, are resistant to the intracellular action of diphtheria toxin but contain toxin receptors on their surfaces. These cells do not have detectable amounts of fibroblast growth factor receptors. When these cells were transfected with fibroblast growth factor receptor 4, the addition of acidic fibroblast grow

10. Elimination of smooth muscle cells in experimental restenosis: targeting of fibroblast growth factor receptors.
Factors in plasma and platelets do not fully account for the proliferation of smooth muscle cells in vascular injury, implying that additional factors are involved. Recently, we and others have observed that vascular injury regulates basic fibroblast growth factor, suggesting a further role for this pleiotropic factor. We report here that injury of rat arter

11. Identification of a fibroblast growth factor-binding protein in Drosophila melanogaster.
As assessed by competitive binding and protein-crosslinking experiments, Drosophila melanogaster cells possess basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-specific binding proteins that are similar to FGF receptors on vertebrate cells in molecular weight and binding affinity; these D. melanogaster cells, however, have no detectable binding proteins for acidic fibr

12. Cell transformation by fibroblast growth factors can be suppressed by truncated fibroblast growth factor receptors.
Ligand-induced dimerization and transphosphorylation are thought to be important events by which receptor tyrosine kinases generate cellular signals. We have investigated the ability of signalling-defective, truncated fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptors (FGFR-1 and FGFR-2) to block the FGF response in cells that express both types of endogenous FGF rece
