Research Abstract

Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2(FGFR2) is noted as a molecular target for cancer treatment in patients with FGFR2 mutation or gene amplification. In this study, we investigated the expression and role of FGFR2IIIc, an isoform of FGFR2, in cervical carcinoma. The expression of FGFR2IIIc was highly detected in cervical cancer cells. And not only the ERK signaling pathway, but the AKT signaling pathway are involved in the progression of cervical carcinoma. Furthermore, the expression of FGFR2IIIc in endometrial lesions showed the same expression pattern with cervical lesions. These findings suggest that FGFR2IIIc plays important roles in carcinogenesis of both cervical cancer and endometrioid cancer. FGFR2IIIc may serve as a novel molecular target for uterus cancer therapy.
