Other Information

**Key Characteristics** FGF7 is a 19-kDa protein with a single polypeptide chain, consisting of 154 amino acids. It is a ligand for the fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) and other receptor tyrosine kinases, such as FGFR1, FGFR3, and IGF1R. FGF7 is secreted by various cell types, including epithelial and mesenchymal cells, and its expression is regulated by multiple signaling pathways, including the PI3K/Akt pathway and the MAPK/ERK pathway. FGF7 has been shown to bind to heparin and other glycosaminoglycans, which is essential for its biological activity. **Pathways and Functions** FGF7 signaling pathway is involved in various biological processes, including: 1. **Cell proliferation and differentiation**: FGF7 stimulates the proliferation and differentiation of epithelial and mesenchymal cells, including keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and smooth muscle cells. 2. **Morphogenesis**: FGF7 plays a critical role in the development and morphogenesis of various tissues, including the skin, lung, and salivary glands. 3. **Angiogenesis**: FGF7 promotes angiogenesis by stimulating the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells. 4. **Tissue repair**: FGF7 is involved in the regulation of tissue repair and wound healing by stimulating the proliferation and differentiation of fibroblasts and other cell types. 5. **Cancer**: Abnormal expression of FGF7 has been implicated in several types of cancer, including lung, breast, and prostate cancer. **Clinical Significance** FGF7 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Cancer**: FGF7 overexpression has been associated with tumorigenesis and metastasis in several types of cancer. 2. **Cardiovascular disease**: FGF7 has been implicated in the development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. 3. **Neurological disorders**: FGF7 has been implicated in the development of neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. 4. **Wound healing**: FGF7 has been used as a therapeutic agent to promote wound healing and tissue repair. 5. **Developmental disorders**: FGF7 has been implicated in the development of developmental disorders, including congenital heart defects and craniofacial abnormalities. In conclusion, FGF7 is a multifunctional protein that plays a critical role in various biological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration. Its dysregulation has been implicated in several diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and developmental disorders. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms of FGF7 signaling and its clinical significance.
