The FGF/FGFR-system plays an important role in embryogenesis, tissue homeostasis and carcinogenesis. Mutational activation of FGFR2 resulting in aberrant FGFR2 signaling activation is known from both hereditary germ line alterations and somatic mutations in various malignancies (e.g.

The first demonstration, to the best of our knowledge, of distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) and monolithic distributed feedback (DFB) lasers in photothermorefractive glass doped with rare-earth ions is reported. The lasers were produced by incorporation of the volume Bragg gratings into the laser gain elements. A monolithic single-frequency solid-state laser with a linewidth of 250 kHz and output power of 150 mW at 1066 nm is demonstrated.
