Another Piece to the Intracellular FGF/Na+ Channel Puzzle COMMENTARY Another piece to the intracellular FGF/Na+ channel puzzle COMMENTARY Elizabeth J. Akina and Michael M. Tamkuna,1 Neuronal communication requires the propagation of precisely regulated action potentials. Although a myriad of ion channels and modulatory proteins con- tribute to the action potential waveform and firing properties of each neuron, voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channels typically generate the crucial depolar- izing event. Early Nav channel biochemistry identified two beta subunits (1), thus generating excitement over how accessory proteins might be involved in Nav chan- nel physiology. In recent years, Nav channel interactors have grown to include intracellular fibroblast growth factor homologous factors (iFGFs) (for a recent review of this subject, see ref. 2). Although the majority of FGFs are secreted growth factors, a four-member subfamily now designated FGF11-14 is distinguished by generating nonsecreted proteins that do not inter- act with FGF receptors. Pioneering efforts by Waxman and colleagues (3, 4) demonstrated that these non- canonical FGFs directly bind the C terminus of Nav channels and influence both current density and gat- ing properties. The current literature includes reports of numerous FGF12-14 interactions with various Nav alpha subunits. The picture is far from complete, how- Fig. 1.

FGF12 is a fbroblast growth factor homologous factor, a subset of the FGF superfamily. To date, its localisation and function in the inner ear have not been determined. Here, we show that FGF12 mRNA is localised in spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) and the vestibular ganglion. We also show that FGF12 protein is localised in SGNs, the vestibular ganglion, and nerve fbres extending beneath hair cells. Moreover, we investigated FGF12 function in auditory and vestibular systems using Fgf12-knockout (FGF12-KO) mice generated with CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Our results show that the inner ear morphology of FGF12-KO mice is not signifcantly diferent compared with wild-type mice. However, FGF12-KO mice exhibited an increased hearing threshold, as measured by the auditory brainstem response, as well as defcits in rotarod and balance beam performance tests. These results suggest that FGF12 is necessary for normal auditory and equilibrium function. Hearing loss is a common problem in people of all ages. Te World Health Organization reports that 360 million people worldwide have hearing loss, with 32 million being children1.

To study the requirement for GSK activity during endochondral bone development, we inhibited GSK3 in cultured metatarsal bones with pharmacological antagonists. Interestingly, we find that inhibition of GSK3 strongly repressed chondrocyte and perichondrial osteoblast differentiation. Moreover, chondrocyte proliferation was inhibited, whereas perichondrial cell proliferation was stimulated. These results mirror the effects of fibroblast growth factor signaling (FGF), suggesting the FGF expression is induced. Indeed, we showed that (1) FGF18 expression is stimulated following inhibition of GSK3 and (2) GSK3 regulates FGF18 expression through the control of h-catenin levels. Stimulation of cultured metatarsal with FGF18 had similar effects on the differentiation and proliferation of chondrocytes and perichondrial cells as GSK3 repression. This suggests that the regulation of FGF18 expression is a major function of GSK3 during endochondral bone development. Consistent with this, we showed that the effect of GSK3 inhibition on chondrocyte proliferation is repressed in tissues lacking a receptor for FGF18, FGF receptor 3. D 2005 Elsevier Inc.

The molecular mechanisms supporting it is highly localized to the AIS, it binds directly to VGSCs, and coordinated regulation of KCNQ and VGSCs and the cellular protects them from inactivation (16, 20–24). We therefore rea- mechanisms governing KCNQ trafficking to the AIS are incom- soned that FGF14 might coordinate KCNQ2/3 channels and pletely understood. Here, we show that fibroblast growth factor VGSCs in the AIS. We report that FGF14 is critical to the 14 (FGF14), previously described as a VGSC regulator, also affects regulation of KCNQ2 channels in hippocampal neurons. FGF14 KCNQ function and localization. FGF14 knockdown leads to a knockdown leads to a loss of KCNQ2 in the AIS and decreases reduction of KCNQ2 in the AIS and a reduction in whole-cell KCNQ KCNQ2/3 currents.

  • FGF/FGFR Signaling in Health and Disease
    Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy www.nature.com/sigtrans REVIEW ARTICLE OPEN FGF/FGFR signaling in health and disease Yangli Xie1, Nan Su1, Jing Yang1, Qiaoyan Tan1, Shuo Huang 1, Min Jin1, Zhenhong Ni1, Bin Zhang1, Dali Zhang1, Fengtao Luo1, Hangang Chen1, Xianding Sun1, Jian Q. Feng2, Huabing Qi1 and Lin Chen 1 Growing evidences suggest that the fibroblast growth factor/FGF receptor (FGF/FGFR) signaling has crucial roles in a multitude of processes during embryonic development and adult homeostasis by regulating cellular lineage commitment, differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis of various types of cells. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of FGF signaling and its roles in organ development, injury repair, and the pathophysiology of spectrum of diseases, which is a consequence of FGF signaling dysregulation, including cancers and chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this context, the agonists and antagonists for FGF-FGFRs might have therapeutic benefits in multiple systems. Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy (2020) 5:181; https://doi.org/10.1038/s41392-020-00222-7 INTRODUCTION OF THE FGF/FGFR SIGNALING The binding of FGFs to the inactive monomeric FGFRs will Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) are broad-spectrum mitogens and trigger the conformational changes of FGFRs, resulting in 1234567890();,: regulate a wide range of cellular functions, including migration, dimerization and activation of the cytosolic tyrosine kinases by proliferation, differentiation, and survival. It is well documented phosphorylating the tyrosine residues within the cytosolic tail of that FGF signaling plays essential roles in development, metabo- FGFRs.4 Then, the phosphorylated tyrosine residues serve as the lism, and tissue homeostasis.
