Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * FGF4 is a secreted protein that is produced by a variety of cell types. * It is a member of the fibroblast growth factor family of proteins. * FGF4 is a key regulator of cell proliferation and migration. * It is also involved in the regulation of cell survival, proliferation, and apoptosis. * FGF4 is a key regulator of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). **Pathways and functions:** * FGF4 is involved in the regulation of cell proliferation and migration. It does this by binding to receptors on the surface of epithelial cells and promoting their migration. * It is also involved in the regulation of cell survival. It does this by binding to the PI3K/AKT pathway, which is a major regulator of cell survival. * FGF4 is also involved in the regulation of cell differentiation. It does this by binding to receptors on the surface of epithelial cells and promoting their differentiation into mesenchymal cells. **Clinical significance:** FGF4 is a promising target for cancer therapy. It is expressed in high levels in many types of cancer cells, and its overexpression is associated with cancer progression and metastasis. Inhibition of FGF4 has been shown to be effective in inhibiting cancer growth and metastasis. **Additional information:** * The gene encoding FGF4 is located on chromosome 17q25. * It is a highly conserved protein, with a similar sequence in mammals and humans. * FGF4 is a well-characterized protein that has been extensively studied in both basic and clinical research.
