Abstract excerpt
Dysregulation of fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs) has been implicated in several human malignancies, including urothelial carcinoma. In urothelial carcinoma, the oncogenic role of mutated FGFR is mediated by the RAS-mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway, resembling the effects observed with activated HRAS Activating somatic mutations of FGFR3 are clustered in three hotspots in exons 7, 10 and 15, and...
