February 2021 in “Scientific Reports” Researchers developed RNA aptamers that specifically inhibited FGF5-induced cell proliferation without affecting FGF2-induced proliferation. One aptamer, F5f1, showed high affinity to FGF5 (Kd = 0.7 ± 0.2 nM) and not to other FGFs or FGFR1. A truncated version, F5f1_56, exhibited even higher affinity (Kd = 0.118 ± 0.003 nM). These aptamers could potentially be used therapeutically for FGF5-related diseases or hair disorders due to their high specificity and inhibitory effects on FGF5.

March 2022 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” The study investigates the role of Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 (FGF21) in mitigating inflammation caused by Cutibacterium acnes (C. acnes), a bacterium linked to acne. FGF21 was found to inhibit C. acnes-induced inflammation in the skin by acting through a receptor complex of FGF receptor 1 (FGFR1) and β-Klotho (KLB). Experiments on HaCaT cells and mouse ears showed that FGF21 counteracted the activation of Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and downstream signaling pathways, reducing the expression of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α. These results suggest that FGF21 could be a potential treatment for acne by suppressing C. acnes-induced inflammation.
