Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors and Breast Cancer
Growth factors are polypeptides that stimulate cell proliferation through binding to specific high-affinity cell membrane receptors. Plasma contains small quantities of growth factors. Platelets contain large amounts and it is thought that these are delivered to sites of injury where they may influence wound healing and repair. Growth factors are present in a variety of other tissues and have d...
متن کاملInsulin-Like Growth Factor and Epidermal Growth Factor Signaling in Breast Cancer Cell Growth: Focus on Endocrine Resistant Disease
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer for women worldwide with a lifetime risk amounting to a staggering total of 10%. It is well established that the endogenous synthesis of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) polypeptide growth factors are closely correlated to malignant transformation and all the steps of the breast cancer metastatic cascade. Numerous...
متن کاملthe study of aaag repeat polymorphism in promoter of errg gene and its association with the risk of breast cancer in isfahan region
چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
15 صفحه اولS100A7-Downregulation Inhibits Epidermal Growth Factor-Induced Signaling in Breast Cancer Cells and Blocks Osteoclast Formation
S100A7 is a small calcium binding protein, which has been shown to be differentially expressed in psoriatic skin lesions, as well as in squamous cell tumors of the skin, lung and breast. Although its expression has been correlated to HER+ high-grade tumors and to a high risk of progression, the molecular mechanisms of these S100A7-mediated tumorigenic effects are not well known. Here, we showed...
متن کاملStudies of epidermal growth factor receptor inhibition in breast cancer.
Until recently, there has been little knowledge on the growth control of oestrogen receptor (ER)-negative ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and invasive breast cancer. The recent development of DCIS models, such as transgenic mice, cell-line xenograft models and, importantly, in vivo human DCIS xenograft models has facilitated the investigation and understanding of the control of growth of early ...
