Targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor [PDF]
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a member of the erbB family of tyrosine kinase receptors (RTK). The EGFR is involved in cell proliferation, metastasis and angiogenesis, and is expressed in a large proportion of epithelial tumours. The two main classes of EGFR inhibitors in clinical trials are the RTK inhibitors and the monoclonal ...

Epidermal growth factor receptor signaling [PDF]
Inhibitory signaling is an important way of fine tuning EGFR activity to enable a cell to discriminate between short and prolonged exposure to signaling molecules. Over the last few years a number of different mechanisms have been shown to abrogate receptor activity (Fig. 3Fig. 3). First, inhibitory signaling molecules are expressed in response to EGFR

The epidermal growth factor receptor conundrum [PDF]
Soluble epidermal growth factor receptor (sEGFR), a cell surface and serum protein derived from an alternately spliced human EGFR transcript, is recognized by 2 therapeutic antibodies approved by the US Food and Drug Administration: cetuximab and panitumumab.

Performance of automated scoring of ER, PR, HER2, CK5/6 and EGFR in breast cancer tissue microarrays in the Breast Cancer Association Consortium [PDF]
Breast cancer risk factors and clinical outcomes vary by tumour marker expression. However, individual studies often lack the power required to assess these relationships, and large-scale analyses are limited by the need for high throughput, standardized

Epidermal growth factor receptor in glioblastoma
Mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) are commonly occurring in glioblastoma. Enhanced activation of EGFR can occur through a variety of different mechanisms, both ligand-dependent and ligand-independent. Numerous evidence has suggested that EGFR is overexpressed in most of primary glioblastomas and some of the secondary ...
