This article provides information about FGF19, FGF21, FGF23 fibroblasts grow factors implication in development of age-related pathologies, where these fibroblasts grow factors have the properties of endogenous hormones. FGF19 plays an important role in development of diabetes mellitus type 2, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, chronic liver diseases. FGF21 is a neuroprotective protein, it regulates lipid and glucose metabolism. FGF23 is a marker for cell senescence and can regulate intracellular calcium metabolism. Decreasing of FGF23 gene expression is correlated with osteoporosis progression. The hypothesis about KE, KED, AEDG peptides regulation of FGF19, FGF21, FGF23 genes expression is under discussion. It was shown that these peptides stimulate fibroblast division and have various geroprotective effects.
Keywords fibroblasts grow factors, short peptides, aging, pathology.
