Gene Description FGF12, fibroblast growth factor 12, is a member of the fibroblast growth factor family, which can act as a ligand for the four major FGF receptors to activate downstream signaling and plays a role in the anti-apoptotic response and sodium channel regulation (PMID: 38042708, PMID: 32357892, PMID: 21566136, PMID: 36029553).
