GenAge entry for FGFR1 (Homo sapiens)

Gene name (HAGRID: 169)

HGNC symbol: FGFR1
Aliases: H2; H3; H4; H5; CEK; FLG; BFGFR; N-SAM; CD331; FLT2; KAL2
Common name: fibroblast growth factor receptor 1

Potential relevance to the human ageing process

Main reason for selection: Entry selected based on indirect or inconclusive evidence linking the gene product to ageing in humans or in one or more model systems
Description: FGFR1 is the receptor of the fibroblast growth factor. Mice with an attenuation of FGFR1 signalling develop diabetes with age and exhibit a decreased number of beta-cells [777]. Lower levels of FGFR1 in mice have also been related to craniofacial defects [778]. Mutations in the human FGFR1 gene have been associated with Pfeiffer [780] and Kallmann syndromes [779]. While FGFR1 could play a role in some age-related diseases, such as diabetes, its involvement in human ageing remains to be determined.
