ErbB receptors and the development of the nervous system

Experimental Cell Research, 2009
Tyrosine kinase receptors and their ligands allow communication between cells in the developing and adult organism. An extensive line of research has revealed that 'neuregulins', a family of EGF-like factors that signal via ErbB receptors, are used frequently for cell communication during nervous system development, and control a spectacular spectrum ...

The EGFR/ERBB Receptor Family

2015
In metazoa, inductive cell-to-cell interactions play crucial roles, both in embryonic development and in homeostasis. Many such interactions are mediated by RTKs and their soluble or surface-bound ligand growth factors. Type 1 RTKs, also called the ERBB or HER family, comprises four proteins, which bind growth factors of the EGF and neuregulin families.

Neuregulins and ErbB receptors in cultured neonatal astrocytes

Journal of Neuroscience Research, 1999
Neuregulins (NRGs) are a family of growth factors involved in signaling between neurons and glial cells of the peripheral and central nervous system. NRGs are synthesized and secreted by a number of cell types including Schwann cells, neurons, and oligodendrocytes.

Neu/ErbB-2 Receptor

1995
Abstract The rodent 185 kD glycoprotein consists of 1260 amino acids (Bargmann et a/. 1986) (GenBank accession number X03662), whereas the human protein is 1255 amino acids long (Coussens eta/. 1985; Yamamoto et al. 1986) (GenBank accession number M11730).

The ErbB receptor family: a therapeutic target for cancer

Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2002
This article reviews the current state of efforts targeting the ErbB family of tyrosine kinase receptors in cancer therapy. In particular, preliminary results will be discussed of studies of the first generation of therapeutics to enter clinical evaluation in malignant diseases.

The status and role of ErbB receptors in human cancer

Experimental and Molecular Pathology, 2008
Changes in the expression of cellular receptors contribute to the progression of many types of solid tumors. In this review, we focus on the normal role of ErbB receptors as signal transducers and their contribution to carcinogenesis when there are abnormalities in ErbB signaling due to the overactivity of the receptors or the overexpression of ligands,

Localization and modulation of ErbB receptor tyrosine kinases

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 2001
The ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases serves as a model for understanding the propagation of growth factor signals across the plasma membrane and the interpretation of those signals into a cellular response. Recent studies point to a critical role for the accumulation of ErbBs at specific cell-surface locations in the fidelity of ErbB signaling.

EGF/ErbB Receptor Family in Ovarian Cancer

2002
In summary, the EGF/ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases has been shown to play a key role in normal ovarian follicle development, and cell growth regulation of the ovarian surface epithelium. Disregulation of these normal growth regulatory pathways, including overexpression and/or mutation of EGFR/ErbB receptor family members, as well as elements ...

The erbB gene and the EGF receptor.

Cancer surveys, 1987
The epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor is a plasma membrane glycoprotein. It contains four distinct segments: an N-terminal EGF binding domain which is exposed at the cell surface; a short transmembrane segment; a cytoplasmic domain with protein-tyrosine kinase activity; and a C-terminal regulatory segment.
