Type 2 Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor (FGFR2)

Target
FGFR2
Molecular classification
Receptor Tyrosine Kinase
01

Overview

Type 2 Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor (FGFR2), also known as CD332, is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase that plays critical roles in embryonic development, tissue repair, bone formation, angiogenesis, and cell differentiation. It signals through RAS-MAPK, PI3K-AKT, and PLCγ pathways, regulating cell proliferation, survival, and differentiation. Mutations and overexpression of FGFR2 are implicated in various cancers and developmental syndromes, making it a therapeutic target.
