FGFR-3 and FGFR-4 function cooperatively to direct alveogenesis in the murine lung
Abstract
Mammalian lungs begin as an outpocket of the foregut, and depend on multiple stages of branching morphogenesis and alveogenesis to reach their final form. An examination of fgf receptor gene expression indicated that all four receptors (fgfr-1 to fgfr-4) are expressed in postnatal lungs at varying levels. We show that mice homozygous for a targeted mutation of fgfr-4 exhibited no overt abnormalities in the lungs or any other organ. However, mice doubly homozygous for disruptions of the fgfr-3 and fgfr-4 genes display novel phenotypes not present in either single mutant, which include pronounced dwarfism and lung abnormalities. Lungs of fgfr-3−/−fgfr-4−/− animals, which are normal at birth, are completely blocked in alveogenesis and do not form secondary septae to delimit alveoli. Consequently, air spaces in the lung are expanded and no alveoli can be seen. The mutant lungs failed to downregulate postnatal elastin deposition despite their normal levels of surfactant expression and cell proliferation. These data revealed a cooperative function of FGFR-3 and FGFR-4 to promote the formation of alveoli during postnatal lung development.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
