The complete family of epidermal growth factor receptors and their ligands are co-ordinately expressed in breast cancer [PDF]
The levels of expression of the four receptors and eleven ligands composing the Epidermal Growth Factor family were measured using immunohistochemical staining in one hundred cases of breast cancer. All of the family were expressed to some degree in some
