Detection of Human FGF-BP by Western Blot
miR-217 targets KLF5 by binding to its 3’UTR.A. miR-217 decreased the KLF5, FGF-BP and Cyclin D1 protein levels in HCC1806 and HCC1937 TNBC cells. KLF5, FGF-BP and Cyclin D1 protein levels were detected by using WB. beta-actin was used as the loading control. B. The putative wild type binding sites of miR-217 on KLF5 3’UTR and its mutants. C. miR-217 mimics significantly inhibits the KLF5 3’UTR luciferase reporter activity through the second putative binding site. HEK293T cells were transfected with miR-217 mimics and pMIR-KLF5 3’-UTR or miR-217 binding sites mutated pMIR-KLF5 3’-UTR reporters (mut1, mut2 or mut1,2) together with the pCMV-Renilla control.

Background: FGF-BP
Fibroblast growth factor binding protein (FGF‑BP), also known as HBp17, is a secreted glycoprotein that increases the bioavailability of FGFs (1). Mature FGF-BP is a 34 kDa, 211 amino acid (aa) O-glycosylated protein with five conserved intrachain disulfide bonds (2‑4). FGF-BP contains a heparin-binding domain (aa 110‑143) and a distinct FGF-binding region (aa 193‑243) (5). Mature human FGF‑BP shares 59% and 54% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat FGF-BP, respectively. FGF-BP is expressed throughout development and in adult squamous epithelium (2, 6). It is upregulated in injured skin, renal tubular epithelium, and spinal nerves as well as in carcinomas of the skin, colon, and pancreas (3, 7‑10). FGF-BP binds FGF-1, -2, -7, -10, and -22 which are secreted and sequestered in the extracellular matrix (ECM) (7, 11). The association of FGF-BP with heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) weakens HSPG attachment of FGFs and promotes their release (2, 8, 12, 13). FGF‑BP enhances the mitogenic effects of FGFs, thereby contributing to epithelial, endothelial, and neuronal tissue repair, angiogenesis, and tumor growth (7‑9, 11, 14, 15).
