Background Information
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4) is a member of a highly conserved tyrosine kinase family, along with FGFR1-3. This family consists of an intracellular tyrosine kinase domain, a single transmembrane domain, and extracellular ligand-binding domains (PMID: 32492514). FGFR4 is the predominant FGFR isoform present in human hepatocytes. FGFR4 has been proposed to play a role in the observed induction of hepatocyte proliferation and carcinogenesis by FGF19; however, contradicting evidence proposing a protective role for FGFR4 in suppressing hepatoma progression has also been proposed(PMID: 20018895). While the role of FGFR4 in cancer remains to be fully elucidated, several findings suggest that this receptor may be an important player in Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development and/or progression(PMID: 10336501).

Reviews
What customers say
The single review for this antibody was mixed. The user tested it at a 1:400 dilution for immunohistochemistry on non-human primate liver, frontal, and temporal tissue samples. They reported significant nonspecific binding, which left them less satisfied than expected with the overall performance. The review was rated 2 out of 5 stars.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
Jillian (Verified Customer) (05-27-2025) | Overall we weren't as happy with the antibody as we wanted to be. There appeared to be a lot of nonspecific binding in the NHP samples that we tested it on
