Abstract excerpt
Fibroblast growth factor receptors comprise a family of four evolutionarily conserved transmembrane proteins (FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4) known to be critical for the normal development of multiple organ systems. In this review we will primarily focus upon the role of FGF/FGFR signaling as it influences the development of the craniofacial skeleton. Signaling by FGF receptors is regulated by the tissue-specific...
