Abstract
No mutation in the fibroblast-growth-factor receptor-4 (FGFR-4) signalling pathway has so far been associated with either heritable human diseases or cancer A new study now implicates N-CAM-FGFR-4 signalling in the regulation of tumour-cell-matrix adhesion and in the metastatis of pancreatic beta -c ell tumours.
