5. Genetic testing identified a de novo, heterozygous mutation in fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1 p.L630P). L630 resides on the ATP binding cleft of the FGFR1 tyrosine kinase domain, and L630P is predicted to cause a complete loss of receptor function. Cell-based assays confirmed that L630P abolishes FGF8 signaling activity PMID: 28195315

7. in one holoprosencephaly (HPE) family, a deleterious FGFR1 allele was transmitted from one parent and a loss-of-function allele in FGF8 from the other parent to both affected daughters. This family is one of the clearest examples to date of gene:gene synergistic interactions causing HPE in humans. PMID: 26931467

15. The oncoprotein HBXIP enhances angiogenesis and growth of breast cancer through modulating FGF8 and VEGF. PMID: 24464787
16. genetic association study in population in Massachusetts: Data suggest that clinical features in Kallmann syndrome (KS) are associated with genetic causes: dental agenesis/digital bony abnormalities are associated with variations/mutations in FGF8. PMID: 23533228
17. A novel FGF8b-binding peptide with anti-tumor effect on prostate cancer. PMID: 23466786

19. genetic association studies in 103 patients from US and UK: Mutations in FGF8, FGFR1, or PROKR2 contributed to 7.8% of patients with combined pituitary hormone deficiency or septo-optic dysplasia. Data suggest genetic overlap with Kallmann syndrome. PMID: 22319038
20. In vivo stimulation of BT-474 cell growth by progesterone is associated with down-regulation of FGF-8. PMID: 22237711
21. We implicate FGF8 in the etiology of recessive holoprosencephaly and potentially septo-optic dysplasia/Moebius syndrome PMID: 21832120
22. This novel mechanism of viral-mediated FGF8 upregulation may implicate a new role of oncoviruses in human carcinogenesis. PMID: 21119603
23. FGF8, FGF17, and FGF18 are involved in autocrine and paracrine signaling in HCC and enhance the survival of tumor cells under stress conditions, malignant behavior, and neoangiogenesis. PMID: 21319186
24. FGF8b is able to induce fast growth in strongly hypoxic tumour microenvironment whereas VEGF-stimulated growth advantage is associated with improved perfusion and oxygenation of prostate tumour xenografts PMID: 21034500
25. Results suggest that increased FGF-8 in human prostate may also contribute to prostate tumorigenesis by stromal activation. PMID: 21076617
26. We identified the first nonsense mutations in the FGF8 gene in familial isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism with variable degrees of GnRH deficiency and olfactory phenotypes, confirming that loss-of-function mutations in FGF8 cause GnRH deficiency. PMID: 20463092
