Abstract excerpt
Fibroblast growth factor receptors belong to the family of a membrane bound tyrosine kinases, which respond to stimulation by the fibroblast growth factor family of cytokines. Signalling through fibroblast growth factor receptors regulates proliferation and differentiation of connective tissue cells. Disruption of these important processes during morphogenesis results in skeletal dysplasias. Mutations of the...
