Prostate carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE FGF-2 is a driving force for chromosomal instability and a stromal factor associated with adverse clinico-pathological features in prostate cancer. 29887238 2018
CUI: C0600139
Disease: Prostate carcinoma
Prostate carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Overall, this study demonstrated that miR-195 suppressed PCa cell metastasis by downregulating FGF2. miR-195 restoration may be considered as a new therapeutic method to treat metastatic PCa. 26650737 2015

0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE FGF-2 disrupts mitotic stability in prostate cancer through the intracellular trafficking protein CEP57. 23243019 2013
CUI: C0600139
Disease: Prostate carcinoma
Prostate carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE In human prostate cancer DU145 cells, FSK (1 μM) and FGF2 (10 ng/ml) increased BSP and Runx2 mRNA and protein levels at 3 and 12h, respectively. 20965237 2011
CUI: C0600139
Disease: Prostate carcinoma
Prostate carcinoma
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Caveolin-1 (cav-1) and the cancer-promoting growth factors vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1), and fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) are often found to be upregulated in advanced prostate cancer and other malignancies. 19903767 2009
CUI: C0600139
Disease: Prostate carcinoma
Prostate carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Fibroblast growth factor-2 mediates transforming growth factor-beta action in prostate cancer reactive stroma. 17637743 2008
CUI: C0600139
Disease: Prostate carcinoma
Prostate carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE These data indicate that endogenously synthesized fibrinogen promotes the growth of lung and prostate cancer cells through interaction with FGF-2. 17949478 2008
CUI: C0600139
Disease: Prostate carcinoma
Prostate carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) is a pleiotropic growth factor that has been implicated in prostate cancer formation and progression. 16940294 2006
CUI: C0600139
Disease: Prostate carcinoma
Prostate carcinoma
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Gene expression levels of IL-8 and bFGF were correlated with the Gleason score and pathologic stage to ascertain their relationship to prostate cancer progression. 15651067 2005
CUI: C0600139
Disease: Prostate carcinoma
Prostate carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Progression of benign prostate cancer to malignant metastasis is linked to increased production of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), a powerful mitogen. 15735018 2005
CUI: C0600139
Disease: Prostate carcinoma
Prostate carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE These studies establish that endogenous FGF-2 dominantly regulates prostate cancer cell survival and proliferation and that exogenous FGFs may assume this function in the absence of endogenous FGF-2. 15561781 2004
CUI: C0600139
Disease: Prostate carcinoma
Prostate carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE To better define the role of FGF2 and FGF7 in human prostate cancer in vivo, we have quantified these two growth factors in clinically localized human prostate cancers and uninvolved prostate by ELISA and Western blotting and determined their localization by immunohistochemistry. 10353739 1999
CUI: C0600139
Disease: Prostate carcinoma
Prostate carcinoma
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE The present studies were conducted to determine whether the angiogenic molecules, vascular endothelial growth factor/vascular permeability factor (VEGF/VPF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) are expressed in vitro by DU-145, PC-3, TSU-PR1, and LnCaP human prostate cancer cell lines and whether Linomide inhibits the secretion of these angiogenic molecules. 9067270 1997
CUI: C0600139

Prostate carcinoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE We observed that these three prostate cancer cell lines, which differed in their dependence on androgens for growth in vitro and in their in vivo behavior in nude mice, could be distinguished as follows: (a) androgen-sensitive LNCaP cells, which do not metastasize in nude mice, did not produce measurable amounts of bFGF, expressed small but measurable amounts of FGF receptor mRNA, and did respond to exogeneous bFGF; (b) androgen-insensitive, moderately metastatic DU 145 cells did produce measurable amounts of biologically active bFGF, expressed large amounts of FGF receptor mRNA, and responded to exogeneous bFGF and the heparin-binding fractions from DU 145 cell extracts; (c) androgen-insensitive and highly metastatic PC3 cells also produced measurable amounts of bFGF but did not demonstrate a growth response to either the heparin-binding fractions from PC3 cell extracts or exogenous bFGF, even though large amounts of FGF receptor mRNA were expressed in PC 3 cells. 1732045 1992
