The overexpression of three growth factor receptors: epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), ERB B2 and ERB B3 was evaluated immunohistochemically in 77 malignant and 15 benign colorectal neoplasms considering clinicopathological variables (histological structure, grade of differentiation, tumor localization, clinical stage of the disease).

Background: The progression and metastasis of non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are considered a very complex process as it involves aberrations of multiple genes and cellular pathways. Genes which are differentially expressed in NSCLC have multi interactions with other genes, which can promote the carcinogenesis.

The oncogenic role of Erb‑B2 Receptor Tyrosine Kinase 2 (ERBB2) has been identified in several types of cancer, but less is known on its function and mechanism of action in cervical cancer cells. The present study employed a multipronged approach to investigate the role of ERBB2 in cervical cancer.

The erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 2 (ERBB2), a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family, is overexpressed in a variety of malignancies (radio- and chemotherapy)., While the fundamental processes are yet unknown, treatment resistance does. Autophagy is well-known.to increase resistance to cancer therapy.

The proangiogenic capacity of polymorphonuclear neutrophils delineated by microarray technique and by measurement of neovascularization in wounded skin of CD18-deficient mice [PDF]
Growing evidence supports the concept that polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) are critically involved in inflammation-mediated angiogenesis which is important for wound healing and repair.

A Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Network Composed of Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptors, Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor, v-erb-b2 Erythroblastic Leukemia Viral Oncogene Homolog 2, and Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor Drives Growth and Survival of Head and Neck Squamous Carcinoma Cell Lines [PDF]
Our laboratory has previously shown that some gefitinib-insensitive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines exhibit dominant autocrine fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) signaling. Herein, we deployed a whole-genome loss-of-function screen to identify genes whose knockdown potentiated the inhibitory effect of the FGFR inhibitor ...

The specificities of small molecule inhibitors of the TGF beta and BMP pathways [PDF]
Small molecule inhibitors of type 1 receptor serine threonine kinases (ALKs1-7), the mediators of TGF beta and BMP signals, have been employed extensively to assess their physiological roles in cells and organisms. While all of these inhibitors have been

Platinum resistance in breast and ovarian cancer cell lines [PDF]
Breast and ovarian cancers are among the 10 leading cancer types in females with mortalities of 15% and 6%, respectively. Despite tremendous efforts to conquer malignant diseases, the war on cancer declared by Richard Nixon four decades ago seems to be ...

Specific structural features of syndecans and heparan sulfate chains are needed for cell signaling [PDF]
The syndecans, heparan sulfate proteoglycans, are abundant molecules associated with the cell surface and extracellular matrix and consist of a protein core to which heparan sulfate chains are covalently attached. Each of the syndecan core proteins has a
