Altered Expression of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) in Glioma
EGFR is a key molecule in cancer cells. EGFR signaling was shown to promote tumor cell proliferation and survival, invasion and angiogenesis and mediate resistance to treatment, including ionizing radiation in preclinical models. We extracted proteins from astrocytoma (III and IV) oligodendroglioma(IV) tumors and normal brain tissues and then evaluated the protein purity by Bradford test ...
متن کاملThe prognostic significance of epidermal growth factor receptor expression in squamous cell carcinomas of the oesophagus.
EGFR expression in 150 potentially curative resected squamous cell carcinomas of the oesophagus was analyzed immunohistochemically and correlated with survival. Altogether, 124 of 150 (82.7%) tumours expressed different levels of EGFR. The percentage of tumour cells expressing EGFR varied greatly between the different tumours (median: 70%). 62 (50.0%) tumours showed weak and intense staining, r...
متن کاملAssessment of epidermal growth factor receptor status in glioblastomas
Objective(s): Our previous study showed that a newly designed tracer radioiodinated 6-(3-morpholinopropoxy)-7-ethoxy-4-(3'-iodophenoxy)quinazoline ([125I]PYK) is promising for the evaluation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) status and prediction of gefitinib treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. EGFR is over-expressed and mutated also in glioblastoma. In the present study, the ...
متن کاملFunctional and Molecular Characterization of C91S Mutation in the Second Epidermal Growth Factor-like Domain of Factor VII
Background: Coagulation Factor VII is a vitamin K-dependent serine protease which has a pivotal role in the initiation of the coagulation cascade. The congenital Factor VII deficiency is a recessive hemorrhagic disorder that occurs due to mutations of F7 gene. In the present study C91S (p.C91S) substitution was detected in a patient with FVII deficiency. This mutation has not b...
متن کاملExpression of epidermal growth factor and epidermal growth factor receptor immunoreactivity in the asthmatic human airway.
Chronic airway inflammation, one of the pathophysiologic features of bronchial asthma, is suspected to be responsible for irreversible pathological changes of airways, called airway remodeling. To examine the mechanisms of airway remodeling in asthma, we investigated the expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and its receptor immunohistochemically in asthmatic human airways. Airway specime...
