Abstract
Growth factors belonging to the FGF family play important roles in tissue and organ repair after trauma. In this review, I discuss the regulation by FGFs of the aspects of cellular behavior important for reparative processes. In particular, I focus on the FGF-dependent regulation of cell proliferation, cell stemness, de-differentiation, inflammation, angiogenesis, cell senescence, cell death, and the production of proteases. In addition, I review the available literature on the enhancement of FGF expression and secretion in damaged tissues resulting in the increased FGF supply required for tissue repair.

Interleukin-18 and fibroblast growth factor 2 in combination is a useful diagnostic biomarker to distinguish adult-onset Still's disease from sepsis. Arthritis Res Ther 2020; 22:108.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify potential biomarkers to distinguish adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) from sepsis. METHOD We recruited 70 patients diagnosed with AOSD according to the Yamaguchi criteria, 22 patients with sepsis, and 118 age-matched controls. Serum levels of 40 cytokines were analyzed using multi-suspension cytokine array. We performed a cluster analysis of each cytokine in the AOSD and sepsis groups in order to identify specific molecular networks. Further, multivariate classification (random forest analysis) and logistic regression analysis were used to rank the cytokines by their importance and determine specific biomarkers for distinguishing AOSD from sepsis. RESULTS Seventeen of the 40 cytokines were found to be suitable for further analyses. The serum levels of eleven were significantly higher in patients with AOSD than healthy controls. Levels of serum fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), and interleukin (IL)-18 were significantly elevated in patients with AOSD compared with those with sepsis, and cytokine clustering patterns differed between these two groups. Multivariate classification followed by logistic regression analysis revealed that measurement of both FGF-2 and IL-18 could distinguish AOSD from sepsis with high accuracy (cutoff value for FGF-2 = 36 pg/mL; IL-18 = 543 pg/mL, sensitivity 100%, specificity 72.2%, accuracy 93.8%). CONCLUSION Determination of FGF-2 and IL-18 levels in combination may represent a biomarker for the differential diagnosis of AOSD from sepsis, based on the measurement of multiple cytokines.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) can be regarded as a chronic, painful and degenerative disease that affects all tissues of a joint and one of the major endpoints being loss of articular cartilage. In most cases, OA is associated with a variable degree of synovial inflammation. A variety of different cell types including chondrocytes, synovial fibroblasts, adipocytes, osteoblasts and osteoclasts as well as stem and immune cells are involved in catabolic and inflammatory processes but also in attempts to counteract the cartilage loss. At the molecular level, these changes are regulated by a complex network of proteolytic enzymes, chemokines and cytokines (for review: [1]). Here, interleukin-1 signaling (IL-1) plays a central role and its effects on the different cell types involved in OA are discussed in this review with a special focus on the chondrocyte.

Abstract
FGF-2 stimulates preosteoblast replication, and knockout of the FGF-2 gene in mice resulted in osteopenia with age, associated with decreased Wnt-β-Catenin signaling. In addition, targeted expression of FGF-2 in osteoblast progenitors increased bone mass in mice via Wnt-β-Catenin signaling. We posited that diminution of the intrinsic proliferative capacity of human mesenchyme-derived progenitor cells (HMDPCs) with age is due in part to reduction in FGF-2. To test this hypothesis HMDPCs from young (27-38), middle aged (47-56), and old (65-76) female human subjects were isolated from bone discarded after orthopedic procedures. HMDPCs cultures were mostly homogeneous with greater than 90% mesenchymal progenitor cells, determined by fluorescence-activated cell sorting. There was a progressive decrease in FGF-2 and FGFR1 mRNA and protein in HMDPCs with age. Since FGF-2 activates β-catenin, which can enhance bone formation, we also assessed its age-related expression in HMDPCs. An age-related decrease in total-β-Catenin mRNA and protein expression was observed. However there were increased levels of p-β-Catenin and decreased levels of activated-β-Catenin in old HMDSCs. FGF-2 treatment increased FGFR1 and β-Catenin protein, reduced the level of p-β-Catenin and increased activated-β-Catenin in aged HMDPCs. In conclusion, reduction in FGF-2 expression could contribute to age-related impaired function of HMDPCs via modulation of Wnt-β-catenin signaling.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the role of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) during FGF-2-mediated endothelial mesenchymal transformation (EMT) in response to interleukin (IL)-1β stimulation in corneal endothelial cells (CECs). METHODS Expression and/or activation of IL-1 receptor-associated protein kinase (IRAK), TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase), IκB kinase (IKK), IκB, NF-κB, and FGF-2 were analyzed by immunoblot analysis. Cell proliferation was measured by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazolyl-2)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. NF-κB activity was measured by NF-κB ELISA kit, while binding of NF-κB to the promoter region of FGF-2 gene was determined by chromatin immunoprecipitation. RESULTS Brief stimulation of CECs with IL-1β upregulated expression of IRAK and TRAF6 and activated PI 3-kinase; expression of IRAK and TRAF6 reached maximum within 60 minutes, after which the expression disappeared, while PI 3-kinase activity was observed up to 4 hours after IL-1β stimulation. Use of specific inhibitor to PI 3-kinase or IRAK demonstrated that IRAK activates PI 3-kinase, the signaling of which phosphorylates IKKα/β and degrades IκB, subsequently leading to activation of NF-κB. The induction of FGF-2 by IL-1β was completely blocked by inhibitors to NF-κB activation (sulfasalazine) or PI 3-kinase (LY294002), and both inhibitors greatly blocked cell proliferation of CECs. Chromatin immunoprecipitation further demonstrated that NF-κB is the transcription factor of FGF-2 as NF-κB binds the putative NF-κB binding site of the FGF-2 promoter. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that IL-1β signaling combines the canonical pathway and the PI 3-kinase signaling to upregulate FGF-2 production through NF-κB, which plays a key role as a transcription factor of FGF-2 gene.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine whether the elevated level of interleukin (IL)-1beta in aqueous humor after transcorneal freezing upregulates FGF-2 synthesis in rabbit corneal endothelium through PI3-kinase and p38 pathways. METHODS Transcorneal freezing was performed in New Zealand White rabbits to induce an injury-mediated inflammation. The concentration of IL-1beta was measured, and the expression of FGF-2, p38, and Akt underwent Western blot analysis. Intracellular location of FGF-2 and actin cytoskeleton was determined by immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS Massive infiltration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) to the corneal endothelium was observed after freezing, and IL-1beta concentration in the aqueous humor was elevated in a time-dependent manner after freezing. Similarly, FGF-2 expression was increased in a time-dependent manner. When corneal endothelium was stained with anti-FGF-2 antibody, the nuclear location of FGF-2 was observed primarily in the cornea after cryotreatment, whereas FGF-2 in normal corneal endothelium was localized at the plasma membrane. Treatment of the ex vivo corneal tissue with IL-1beta upregulated FGF-2 and facilitated its nuclear location in corneal endothelium. Transcorneal freezing disrupted the actin cytoskeleton at the cortex, and cell shapes were altered from cobblestone morphology to irregular shape. Topical treatment with LY294002 and SB203580 on the cornea after cryotreatment blocked the phosphorylation of Akt and p38, respectively, in the corneal endothelium. These inhibitors also reduced FGF-2 levels and partially blocked morphologic changes after freezing. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that after transcorneal freezing, IL-1beta released by PMNs into the aqueous humor stimulates FGF-2 synthesis in corneal endothelium via PI3-kinase and p38.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the mechanism by which IL-1beta induces FGF-2 and to elucidate the signaling pathways of IL-1beta-induced FGF-2 in corneal endothelial cells (CECs). METHODS Expression and/or activation of FGF-2, p38, ERK1/2, and Akt was analyzed by immunoblot analysis. Cell proliferation was measured by MTT assay. Pharmacologic inhibitors were used to block PI 3-kinase, p38, or ERK1/2. RESULTS Brief stimulation of CECs with IL-1beta activated PI 3-kinase and p38 in a biphasic fashion. The first wave of activation, triggered by IL-1beta, involves the inductive activity of IL-1beta on FGF-2 production; the second wave of activation, triggered by the induced FGF-2, involves the promotion of cellular activities. In both pathways, p38 acts downstream to PI 3-kinase. The inductive activity of IL-1beta on FGF-2 is further evidenced by the conditioned medium, which contains a large amount of FGF-2. Stimulation of CECs with IL-1beta also activated ERK1/2 in a delayed fashion. The IL-1beta-induced FGF-2 exerted cellular activities using distinct pathways: the second wave of activation of PI 3-kinase and p38 was involved in cell migration, whereas cell proliferation was simultaneously stimulated by ERK1/2 and the second wave of PI 3-kinase. Likewise, the conditioned medium demonstrated cellular activities and pathways identical with those observed in cells treated with IL-1beta. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that CECs produce FGF-2 by IL-1beta stimulation through PI 3-kinase and p38. The IL-1beta-induced FGF-2 facilitates cell migration via PI 3-kinase and p38, whereas it stimulates cell proliferation using PI 3-kinase and ERK1/2 in parallel pathways.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) is one of the most studied growth factors to date. Most attention has been dedicated to the smallest, 18 kDa FGF2 variant that is released by cells and acts through activation of cell-surface FGF-receptor tyrosine kinases. There are, however, several higher molecular weight (HMW) variants of FGF2 that rarely leave their producing cells, are retained in the nucleus and act independently of FGF-receptors (FGFR). Despite significant evidence documenting the expression and intracellular trafficking of HMW FGF2, many important questions remain about the physiological roles and mechanisms of action of HMW FGF2. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge about the biology of HMW FGF2, its role in disease and areas for future investigation.

Abstract
Background Inhalation of crystalline silica particles is in humans associated with inflammation and development of fibrosis. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of crystalline silica on the release of the fibrosis- and angiogenesis-related mediator FGF-2 and the pro-inflammatory mediator IL-8, and how IL-1β and TNF-α were involved in this release from various mono- and co-cultures of monocytes, pneumocytes and endothelial cells. Results Silica exposure induced an increase of IL-8 release from monocytes and from pneumocytes alone, and the FGF-2 level in the medium increased upon silica exposure of pneumocytes. Both the responses were enhanced in non-contact co-cultures with endothelial cells. The FGF-2 release seemed to increase with the silica-induced decrease in the number of pneumocytes. The release of IL-8 and FGF-2 was partially suppressed in cultures with pneumocytes in contact with monocytes compared to non-contact cultures. Treatment with anti-TNF-α and the IL-1 receptor antagonist revealed that release of IL-1β, and not TNF-α, from monocytes dominated the regulation of IL-8 release in co-cultures. For release of FGF-2, IL-1ra was without effect. However, exogenous IL-1β reduced the FGF-2 levels, strongly elevated the FGF-2-binding protein PTX3, and prevented the reduction in the number of pneumocytes induced by silica. Conclusion IL-1β seems to be differently involved in the silica-induced release of IL-8 and FGF-2 in different lung cell cultures. Whereas the silica-induced IL-8 release is regulated via an IL-1-receptor-mediated mechanism, IL-1β is suggested only indirectly to affect the silica-induced FGF-2 release by counteracting pneumocyte loss. Furthermore, the enhanced IL-8 and FGF-2 responses in co-cultures involving endothelial cells show the importance of the interaction between different cell types and may suggest that both these mediators are important in angiogenic or fibrogenic processes.

Abstract
The effect of interleukin-1alpha (IL-1alpha) on the production of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in human gingival fibroblasts originated from a nifedipine-reactive patient was investigated. Ca(2+)-mobilizing agents, thapsigargin and bradykinin, were also tested to determine whether they affected the production and release of bFGF. The release of bFGF from IL-1alpha-pretreated cells in relation to the transient increase in intracellular Ca(2+)([Ca(2+)]i) and extracellular Ca(2+)levels was also investigated. IL-1alpha and thapsigargin yielded significantly higher bFGF production, and also enhanced bFGF mRNA expression. IL-1alpha-pretreated cells showed significantly greater release of bFGF under the present experimental conditions. Levels of released bFGF were significantly higher in cells pretreated with IL-1alpha, followed by bradykinin and thapsigargin in the presence of extracellular Ca(2+). The transient mobilization of intracellular Ca(2+) accelerated the release of bFGF in IL-1alpha-pretreated cells, but not in untreated cells. Thus, IL-1alpha increases bFGF production in nifedipine-reactive gingival fibroblasts and also influences the release of bFGF in the IL-1alpha-pretreated cells.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factors-2 (FGF-2) and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) are two of the main factors that regulate differentiation of osteoblasts. Interleukin-18 (IL-18), originally cloned as an interferon gamma-inducing factor, has been reported to inhibit maturation of osteoclasts by upregulation of osteoprotegerin secreted from osteoblasts. Little is known about the functional relationship between IL-18 and the two growth factors in osteoblast differentiation. To better understand this relationship, we analyzed the effect of BMP-2 and FGF-2 on the mRNA expression levels of IL-18, as well as IL-1alpha and IL-6, in MC3T3-E1 mouse osteoblastic cells. Following this, the effects of BMP-2 on the expression of IL-18 protein and caspase-1 protein were analyzed by immunofluorescence staining. Real-time PCR and immunofluorescence staining analysis showed that FGF-2 had no effect on the expression of IL-18 mRNA and protein, but while BMP-2 reduced IL-18 mRNA levels, increased immunostaining of both IL-18 protein and caspase-1 protein was detected in BMP-2-treated MC3T3-E1 cells. Although the significance and mechanisms of this counterregulation of IL-18 mRNA and protein were not determined in this study, the increase of IL-18 protein suggested that BMP-2 may induce an active form of IL-18.

Abstract
FGF-2 stimulates bone formation in vitro and in vivo in rats. However, there are limited studies in mice and no data on the mechanism(s) by which FGF-2 induces bone formation. We assessed whether short-term FGF-2 treatment of marrow stromal cells from young mice would increase alkaline phosphatase-positive (ALP), mineralized colony formation and expression of genes important in osteoblast maturation. Short-term treatment with FGF-2 (0.01-1.0 nM) for the first 3 days of a 14- or 21-day culture period increased the number of ALP mineralized colonies in bone marrow stromal cells. FGF-2 (0.1 nM) increased the mRNAs for type 1 collagen: osteocalcin, runt domain/core binding factor, PTH/PTHR receptor, and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) at 14 and 21 days.
