Background The effects of progesterone are mediated by 2 progesterone receptors (PR), PR-A and PR-B. Recently, several lines of evidence have suggested that reduced PR expression may result from hyperactivity in the signaling cascade generated by the HER/

Regulation of sebaceous gland homeostasis and sebum secretion by the ERBB receptor family [PDF]
Summary: ERBB receptors are underappreciated regulators of cellular processes in the sebaceous gland (SG). They control sebocyte proliferation, differentiation, and lipid production - mechanisms that are essential for SG homeostasis, sebum secretion, and

Does the ERBB/EGF Signaling Network Serve as a Nexus for Oncogenic Signals in Uveal Melanoma? [PDF]
Uveal melanomas (UMs) metastasize at a high frequency, and metastatic UMs are associated with very poor clinical outcomes. Consequently, there is considerable interest in the genetics and biochemistry of UM and in how these insights may lead to novel and

Progress in the Research and Targeted Therapy of ErbB/HER Receptors in Urothelial Bladder Cancer
Bladder cancer is a lethal malignancy and a majority of bladder cancer arise from urothelial cells. Infiltration and metastasis are barriers for the radical cystectomy to achieve favored outcome and are the main cause of death.

The ErbB Signaling Network and Its Potential Role in Endometrial Cancer
Endometrial cancer (EC) is the second most common malignancy of the female reproductive system worldwide. The updated EC classification emphasizes the significant role of various signaling pathways such as PIK3CA-PIK3R1-PTEN and RTK/RAS/β-catenin in EC ...

ErbB polymorphisms: Insights and implications for response to targeted cancer therapeutics
Advances in high-throughput genomic-scanning have expanded the repertory of genetic variations in DNA sequences encoding ErbB tyrosine kinase receptors in humans, including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), polymorphic repetitive elements ...

Chronic morphine treatment attenuates cell growth of human BT474 breast cancer cells by rearrangement of the ErbB signalling network. [PDF]
There is increasing evidence that opioid analgesics may interfere with tumour growth. It is currently thought that these effects are mediated by transactivation of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK)-controlled ERK1/2 and Akt signalling.
