Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2, gain-of-function mutations, and tumourigenesis: investigating a potential link.
Activating germline mutations in the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) gene family have been identified in several dominantly inherited skeletal disorders; in the case of FGFR3, the same somatically arising mutations have also been isolated from a variety of tumour tissues. Whilst the role of...
