Abstract:
This article presents the research design and principal findings of the recent study " Structural basis for FGF hormone signalling" published in Nature. It highlights the study′s significance in elucidating the molecular mechanisms of fibroblast growth factor(FGF)23, FGF receptor(FGFR), Klotho, and heparan sulfate(HS) quaternary complex signalling. These findings offer crucial structural insights that could advance drug discovery for metabolic disorders like diabetes and chronic kidney disease.
