Mechanistic narrative

Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

FGF1 is a heparin-binding growth factor that operates through two distinct arms: canonical signaling via cell-surface FGF receptors and a receptor-independent intracrine/nuclear pathway, and it has emerged as a potent regulator of systemic metabolism (PMID:28813681, PMID:34986332). At the receptor, FGF1 binding induces FGFR and ligand homodimerization in a heparin-/heparan sulfate-dependent manner (PMID:7686384), and an engineered variant with diminished heparan-sulfate-assisted FGFR dimerization (FGF1ΔHBS) retains full metabolic activity while losing mitogenic potency, establishing that stable receptor dimerization drives proliferation whereas suboptimal dimerization suffices for metabolic responses (PMID:28813681). Metabolically, peripheral FGF1 acutely suppresses adipose lipolysis and hepatic glucose production by activating phosphodiesterase 4D to inhibit the cAMP-PKA axis—mechanistically distinct from insulin's action via PDE3B (PMID:34986332)—and promotes adipocyte glucose uptake through MEK1/2-Akt crosstalk acting on GLUT4 and transcriptional induction of GLUT1 (PMID:36161959). In a parallel intracrine route, exogenous FGF1 is endocytosed and translocated to the cytosol in a PI3K-dependent manner (PMID:10766827), imported into the nucleus via the ER-anchored protein LRRC59 together with importin-α1/β1 and Ran (PMID:22321063), where it binds nucleolin to enable PKCδ-mediated phosphorylation at S130 that triggers nuclear export (PMID:24595027); nuclear FGF1 interacts with p53 and suppresses p53-dependent apoptosis independently of FGFR kinase activity (PMID:19765618, PMID:30099027). FGF1 is secreted by a non-classical, signal-peptide-independent route that requires Cu2+-dependent assembly with S100A13, sphingosine kinase 1, and AHNAK2 (PMID:14625381, PMID:17643421, PMID:25560297), a pathway transcriptionally restrained by Notch/CBF1 signaling (PMID:21302306). Across tissues these activities underlie roles in β-cell compensatory differentiation (PMID:26420862), cardiomyocyte protection and proliferation (PMID:12176126), adipogenesis downstream of mechanical Piezo1 activation (PMID:32385276), and reversal of hepatic steatosis (PMID:36934380).

2003 FGF1 non-classical export (lacking an N-terminal signal sequence) depends on Cu2+-dependent formation of multiprotein complexes containing the S100A13 protein, and the protein may translocate across the membrane as a 'molten globule'. Biochemical characterization of export complex components; copper chelation inhibition experiments Journal of cell science Medium 14625381
2007 Sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) is a component of the copper-dependent FGF1 non-classical export pathway: SphK1 forms a complex with FGF1 in a cell-free system in a copper-dependent manner, SphK1-null cells fail to release FGF1 under stress, and SphK1 overexpression rescues FGF1 release from inhibition by a copper chelator. Cell-free complex reconstitution, SphK1 knockout/overexpression, copper chelation rescue experiments Experimental cell research Medium 17643421
2000 Translocation of exogenous aFGF from the cell surface to the cytosol and nucleus requires phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) activity; inhibition of PI3K by chemical inhibitors or dominant-negative PI3K blocks cytosolic and nuclear translocation of aFGF, and PI3K-inhibited cells retain a diphtheria toxin–aFGF fusion protein in the cytosol rather than allowing nuclear entry. PI3K chemical inhibition, dominant-negative PI3K expression, cell fractionation, farnesylation and PKC phosphorylation reporters for translocation The Journal of biological chemistry High 10766827
2012 Nuclear import of exogenous FGF1 (after cytosolic translocation) requires the ER-anchored protein LRRC59, Ran GTPase, importin-α1 (Kpnα1), and importin-β1 (Kpnβ1), as well as a nuclear localization sequence (NLS) in FGF1. LRRC59 depletion by siRNA does not block cytosolic translocation but blocks nuclear import of FGF1; nuclear import of FGF2 is independent of LRRC59 but dependent on the same importins. siRNA knockdown of LRRC59, Kpnα1, Kpnβ1; cell fractionation; localization imaging; comparison with FGF2 import pathway Traffic (Copenhagen, Denmark) High 22321063
2014 Nucleolin binds directly to FGF1 (interaction confirmed by surface plasmon resonance and pulldown) at residues within the heparin-binding site; nucleolin is required for intranuclear phosphorylation of FGF1 by PKCδ, and this phosphorylation event is required for nuclear export of FGF1. In nucleolin-depleted cells, FGF1 enters the nucleus but is neither phosphorylated by PKCδ nor exported.

2009 FGF1 nuclear translocation (via its NLS) is required for both its neurotrophic/differentiation activity and its protection against p53-dependent apoptosis in PC12 cells; deletion of the NLS (FGF1ΔNLS) abolishes nuclear localization and both activities. Wild-type FGF1 interacts with p53 (co-immunoprecipitation), whereas ΔNLS-FGF1 does not.

2005 Intracellular (intracrine) FGF1 inhibits p53-dependent apoptosis and cell growth arrest via an intracrine pathway; it increases MDM2 expression (mRNA and protein), accelerating p53 degradation, and prevents Bax transactivation by p53. p53 activation represses FGF1 gene expression. Extracellular FGF1 has no effect on p53-dependent pathways.

2016 FGF1 C-terminal residue K132 and phosphorylation of S130 regulate intracrine FGF1 anti-apoptotic activity in PC12 cells: K132E mutation abolishes both neurotrophic and anti-apoptotic activities; FGF1(S130A) (non-phosphorylatable) protects against p53-dependent apoptosis, whereas FGF1(S130D) (phosphomimetic) does not, indicating that phosphorylation inhibits anti-apoptotic activity but does not affect neurotrophic/differentiation activity.

2017 FGF1 protects neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells from p53-dependent apoptosis through an intracrine pathway regulated by FGF1 phosphorylation at S130 and the C-terminal domain (K132). FGF1 phosphorylation status determines intracrine (but not extracellular pathway) anti-apoptotic activity; this effect is cell-type specific (absent in N2a cells).

2018 Intracellular FGF1 (translocated from endosomes into the cytosol/nucleus) protects cells against apoptosis independently of FGFR activation and downstream signaling; this anti-apoptotic effect is abolished by inhibitors of endosome-to-cytosol translocation but not by potent FGFR kinase inhibitors. FGF1 mutations preventing binding to nucleolin (thereby preventing nuclear phosphorylation) reduce the anti-apoptotic activity, linking nuclear phosphorylation to anti-apoptotic function.

2015 AHNAK2 associates with FGF1 in a heat-shock-dependent manner (identified by co-immunoprecipitation/mass spectrometry); AHNAK2 depletion drastically decreases stress-induced FGF1 export but does not affect spontaneous FGF2 export or Notch-inhibition-induced FGF1 release, placing AHNAK2 specifically in the stress-induced non-classical FGF1 export pathway.

2011 Non-classical FGF1 release and FGF1-dependent cell transformation are regulated by Notch signaling through transcription factor CBF1: dominant-negative CBF1 induces FGF1 and SphK1 transcription and stimulates stress-independent FGF1 release; the transformed phenotype of dnCBF1 cells is blocked by dominant-negative FGFR1 or dominant-negative S100A13; FGF1 export and cell proliferation induced by dnCBF1 depend on SphK1.

1996 FGF1 neurotrophic activity (neuronal differentiation and serum-free survival) in PC12 cells requires endogenous FGF1 expression and is independent of the MAP kinase cascade; MAP kinase (ERK1) is activated equally by FGF1, FGF1+heparin, and a mutated FGF1, but only FGF1+heparin promotes differentiation.

2017 An FGF1 partial agonist carrying triple mutations (FGF1ΔHBS) that diminish heparan sulfate (HS)-assisted FGFR dimerization has severely reduced mitogenic/proliferative activity while retaining full metabolic activity; this establishes that stable FGFR dimerization is required for mitogenesis but suboptimal FGFR activation by a weak FGF1-FGFR dimer is sufficient for metabolic responses (glucose homeostasis).

2022 FGF1 acutely suppresses adipose lipolysis and hepatic glucose production by inhibiting the cAMP-PKA axis through activation of phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D), which is mechanistically distinct from insulin's inhibitory action via PDE3B.

2022 FGF1 increases glucose uptake in adipocytes via two mechanisms: acutely, through MEK1/2 and Akt crosstalk activating the insulin-sensitive glucose transporter GLUT4; and with prolonged exposure, through MEK1/2-dependent transcriptional upregulation of the basal glucose transporter GLUT1. FGF1 knockout mice have reduced adipose glucose uptake.

2020 In adipocytes, mechanical activation of Piezo1 causes release of FGF1, which then induces preadipocyte differentiation (adipogenesis) through activation of FGF receptor 1 (FGFR1).

2015 In zebrafish, Fgf1 signaling is necessary and sufficient for overnutrition-induced compensatory β-cell differentiation: fgf1 inactivation abolishes compensatory β-cell differentiation; expression of human FGF1 solely in β-cells rescues the response in fgf1-/- animals; constitutive FGF1 secretion with an exogenous signal peptide increases β-cell number without overnutrition.

2014 FGFR-1 interacts with the TNF receptor superfamily member Fn14 (co-immunoprecipitation and proximity ligation assay in cardiomyocytes); FGF1-induced cardiomyocyte cell cycle reentry is blocked by Fn14 inhibition, and TWEAK-induced cell cycle activation is blocked by FGFR-1 inhibition; costimulation with FGF1 and TWEAK synergistically induces cell cycle reentry via PI3K/Akt signaling.

1991 Both high-affinity aFGF (and bFGF) binding and receptor activation by aFGF/bFGF do not require the N-terminal first Ig-like domain and acidic motif of the FGFR (bek/FGFR2); a truncated bek variant lacking these regions is sufficient for high-affinity binding and cell activation. cDNA cloning and overexpression of truncated FGFR variants in NIH3T3 cells; FGF binding assay Oncogene Medium 1722570
1995 aFGF and bFGF induce membrane ruffling in breast cancer cells (but not normal breast epithelial cells) through FGFR-4; dominant-negative FGFR-3 or dominant-negative p21rac inhibits membrane ruffling, establishing that receptor dimerization/phosphorylation and Rac activation are prerequisites; transient transfection showed FGFR-1, -2, -3 cannot mediate ruffling while FGFR-4 can. Dominant-negative FGFR3 and Rac transfection, transient transfection of individual FGFRs in COS-7 cells, morphological membrane ruffling assay The Biochemical journal Medium 7534069
2001 FGF-1 (and FGF-2) upregulate E-cadherin, β-catenin, and α-catenin protein levels in pancreatic cancer cells and facilitate the association of E-cadherin and α-catenin with the cytoskeleton (shown by increased detergent-insoluble fraction). FGFs also elevate tyrosine phosphorylation of E-cadherin, α-, β-, and γ-catenins (but not p120ctn), suggesting FGF/FGFR signaling regulates the E-cadherin/catenin complex. FGF-1 treatment of pancreatic cancer cell lines, Western blot for cadherin/catenin levels, Triton X-100 fractionation for cytoskeletal association, tyrosine phosphorylation Western blot International journal of cancer Medium 11745459
2019 Both Erk1/2 and p38 kinase phosphorylate FRS2 (a major FGFR1 signaling mediator) as part of negative-feedback downregulation of FGF1-induced signaling. Simultaneous inhibition of both Erk1/2 and p38 produces significantly prolonged FGFR1 and FRS2 tyrosine phosphorylation compared to Erk inhibition alone, and excessive p38 activation can partially compensate for absent Erk activity. Pharmacological inhibition of Erk1/2 and/or p38 in NIH3T3 and U2OS-FGFR1 cells; anisomycin p38 activation; Western blot for FGFR1 and FRS2 phosphorylation International journal of molecular sciences Medium 31013829
2013 The FGF1 gene 1B promoter is activated by valproic acid (VPA) through inhibition of HDAC (histone deacetylases) and GSK-3 activities; VPA causes increased histone H3 acetylation at an 18-bp cis-element of the FGF-1B promoter and alters RFX1-3 transcriptional complex binding. FGF-1B promoter-GFP reporter, HDAC and GSK-3 inhibitors (sodium butyrate, trichostatin A, lithium), GSK-3 siRNA, ChIP for histone acetylation Journal of neurochemistry Medium 23647222
2012 RFX1, RFX2, and RFX3 transcription factors directly bind an 18-bp cis-element (-484 to -467) in the human FGF1 gene 1B promoter to regulate its activity; RFX2/RFX3 complex is detected only in FGF-1B positive cells; RFX2 knockdown reduces FGF-1B(+) cell proportion and neurosphere formation while RFX2 overexpression has opposite effects. Promoter-reporter assays, ChIP/EMSA for RFX binding, RFX2 siRNA knockdown and overexpression, neurosphere assays Journal of cellular biochemistry Medium 22415835
2023 FGF1 ameliorates hepatic steatosis by inducing IGFBP2 expression through reducing recruitment of DNA methyltransferase 3α (DNMT3A) to the IGFBP2 genomic locus, decreasing IGFBP2 gene methylation and increasing its expression; AAV-mediated IGFBP2 suppression diminishes the therapeutic benefit of FGF1 on hepatic steatosis, demonstrating that this epigenetic IGFBP2 pathway mediates FGF1 metabolic action. Recombinant FGF1 treatment in HFD mice, ChIP for DNMT3A at IGFBP2 locus, bisulfite sequencing for methylation, AAV-IGFBP2 knockdown epistasis, palmitic acid hepatocyte model FASEB journal Medium 36934380
2016 FGF1/FGFR signaling activates Aurora A (AurA) kinase (Thr288 phosphorylation) in glioblastoma cells; FGFR inhibitor (SU5402) down-regulates AurA activity and AurA inhibitors reduce neurosphere formation and induce neuronal differentiation of FGF1B(+) GBM cells. FGF1 treatment and FGFR inhibition in GBM cell lines, AurA phosphorylation Western blot, FACS isolation of F1BGFP+ cells, neurosphere assays, AurA inhibitors Experimental cell research Medium 27138904
2021 FGF1ΔHBS (reduced heparin-binding, low-mitogenicity variant) protects against diabetic cardiomyopathy by activating AMPK, which suppresses Nur77 expression, leading to reduced mitochondrial fragmentation, ROS, and cytochrome c leakage and enhanced mitochondrial respiration; protective effects are absent in AMPK-null mice, establishing AMPK as a required downstream mediator. db/db mouse model, FGF1ΔHBS administration, RNA-seq, AMPK knockout mice, mitochondrial function assays, ROS and apoptosis assays in vitro and in vivo Signal transduction and targeted therapy High 33762571
1993 aFGF binding to cell-surface receptors induces both high-affinity receptor (HAR/FGFR1) dimerization and aFGF homodimerization; the 150 kDa HAR-aFGF complex is proposed to consist of one FGFR1 associated with one heparan sulfate proteoglycan (LAR) via aFGF dimerization. Heparin suppresses formation of the 150 kDa complex and the aFGF dimer on LAR. An aFGF mutant with reduced heparin affinity does not promote dimerization. Only HAR (not LAR) directly mediates aFGF internalization. Cross-linking experiments with 125I-aFGF, receptor binding and internalization assays, heparin competition, aFGF mutant with reduced heparin affinity Growth factors (Chur, Switzerland) Medium 7686384
2022 FGF1 promotes a glycolytic metabolic phenotype in endocrine-resistant breast cancer cells by stimulating estrogen receptor (ER) phosphorylation independently of estradiol; this estrogen-independent ER activation and metabolic reprogramming involves the FGF/FGFR axis. Untargeted proteomics, phospho-proteomics, gene expression profiling, functional metabolic assessments in breast cancer cells; validated in obese mouse tumor samples Breast cancer research Medium 37608351
