'''Fibroblast growth factor receptors''' (FGFR) are receptors which bind [[fibroblast growth factors]] (FGF). Each FGFR can activate several FGFs. Five FGFRs have been identified so far. FGFRs differ in their ligand specificity and tissue distribution. The binding of FGF to FGFR starts a cascade of signaling which influences mitogenesis and differentiation<ref>PMID:8713482</ref>.
