A group of scientists led by Pennington Biomedical Research Center's Dr. Christopher Morrison recently discovered that the hormone fibroblast growth factor 21, or FGF21, plays an influential role ...

Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) analogs significantly improve fibrosis and resolve metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) without progression, showing promise for non ...

While fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) analogs have shown promise in clinical trials, their underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. A research team led by Prof. Li Yu at the Shanghai ...

An analysis of 60 participants with type 2 diabetes and 24 healthy controls highlighted that mutations in the FFAR4 gene, which reduce FGF21 production, correlate with a greater preference for sugars.
