Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF10) is a major morphoregulatory factor that plays essential signaling roles during vertebrate multiorgan development and homeostasis. FGF10 is predominantly expressed in mesenchymal cells and signals though FGFR2b in adjacent epithelia to regulate branching morphogenesis, stem cell fate, tissue differentiation and proliferation, in addition to autocrine roles. Genetic loss of function analyses have revealed critical requirements for FGF10 signaling during limb, lung, digestive system, ectodermal, nervous system, craniofacial and cardiac development. Heterozygous FGF10 mutations have been identified in human genetic syndromes associated with craniofacial anomalies, including lacrimal and salivary gland aplasia. Elevated Fgf10 expression is associated with poor prognosis in a range of cancers. In addition to developmental and disease roles, FGF10 regulates homeostasis and repair of diverse adult tissues and has been identified as a target for regenerative medicine.
期刊介绍:
Differentiation is a multidisciplinary journal dealing with topics relating to cell differentiation, development, cellular structure and function, and cancer. Differentiation of eukaryotes at the molecular level and the use of transgenic and targeted mutagenesis approaches to problems of differentiation are of particular interest to the journal.
The journal will publish full-length articles containing original work in any of these areas. We will also publish reviews and commentaries on topics of current interest.
The principal subject areas the journal covers are: • embryonic patterning and organogenesis
• human development and congenital malformation
• mechanisms of cell lineage commitment
• tissue homeostasis and oncogenic transformation
• establishment of cellular polarity
• stem cell differentiation
• cell reprogramming mechanisms
• stability of the differentiated state
• cell and tissue interactions in vivo and in vitro
• signal transduction pathways in development and differentiation
• carcinogenesis and cancer
• mechanisms involved in cell growth and division especially relating to cancer
• differentiation in regeneration and ageing
• therapeutic applications of differentiation processes.
