Abstract
Fibroblast Growth Factor 6 (FGF6), also referred to as HST2 or HBGF6, is a member of the Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF), the Heparin Binding Growth Factor (HBGF) and the Heparin Binding Secretory Transforming Gene (HST) families. The genomic and protein structure of FGF6 is highly conserved among varied species, as is its expression in muscle and muscle progenitor cells. Like other members of the FGF family, FGF6 regulates cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration. Specifically, it plays key roles in myogenesis and muscular regeneration, angiogenesis, along with iron transport and lipid metabolism. Similar to others from the FGF family, FGF6 also possesses oncogenic transforming activity, and as such is implicated in a variety of cancers.
