Gene Description | FGFR1, fibroblast growth factor receptor 1, is a receptor tyrosine kinase activated upon binding of the FGF ligand, which activates RAS-MAPK and PI3K-AKT pathways (PMID: 22508544). Altered function of Fgfr1 may lead to increased cell proliferation and decreased apoptosis (PMID: 22508544) and amplification and/or overexpression has been identified in colorectal cancer (PMID: 30181810), gastric cancer (PMID: 29976636), and breast cancer (PMID: 30119151). | ||||||||||
