GlossaryFibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 1 (FGFR1)

protein involved in cell growth and tissue repair

Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 1 (FGFR1) is a protein that plays a crucial role in cell growth, development, and tissue repair by binding to specific growth factors. It is involved in various biological processes, including the development of the nervous system and the regulation of hair growth. Mutations or dysregulation of FGFR1 can lead to developmental disorders and contribute to conditions like cancer.
