How can you use “fgf” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Recent work on neural induction comes to two major conclusions: (i) the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling pathway plays a major role in this process, and (ii) neural specification starts well before gastrulation and thus before the formation and function of the organizer.
Extensive evidence indicates that both FGF-1 and FGF-2 are potent angiogenic factors, providing support for their use as stimuli for therapeutic angiogenesis in vivo . It is also important to note that many cell types express one of the four FGF receptors, and that FGF has been shown to have biological effects in a number of cell systems including induction of neurite outgrowth, suppression of skeletal muscle differentiation, induction of bone formation and neuroprotection, to name just a few.
The time delay in Churchill induction appears to be the key in explaining how one signal, FGF, can be involved in mesodermal and neural development at the same time in cells that are in close proximity.
We used public genomic resources to determine whether chromosomal locations of genes from any one of the four families (EGF, SLC4A, ANK and FGF) can be used to predict the genomic location of novel members of the remaining families.
It has been shown that the differentiation of pillar cells depends on activation of Fgfr3 [ 26 ] by FGF's, probably Fgf8, a factor produced by developing and mature inner hair cells [ 18 27 ] . The formation of supporting cells also appears to depend on the proper expression of various bHLH factors such as Hes 1 and 5 which appear to be regulated by the Notch signaling pathway [ 17 28 29 ] . It is possible that the apparent inability of fibers to extend along outer hair cells is related to the lack of differentiation of supporting cells in the absence of mature hair cells.
