Assessment 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 کاملP157: Periostin Recruits Tumor Associated Macrophages in Glioblastoma Multiform
Glioblastoma multiform (GBM) is the most common and lethal type of primary brain tumors with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Treatment options are limited and ineffective in most of the cases. Epidemiological studies have shown a link between inflammation and glioma genesis. In addition, at the molecular level, pro-inflammatory cytokines released from activated microglia can increa...
متن کاملTargeting autocrine HB-EGF signaling with specific ADAM12 inhibition using recombinant ADAM12 prodomain
Dysregulation of ErbB-family signaling underlies numerous pathologies and has been therapeutically targeted through inhibiting ErbB-receptors themselves or their cognate ligands. For the latter, "decoy" antibodies have been developed to sequester ligands including heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (HB-EGF); however, demonstrating sufficient efficacy has been difficult. Here, we hypothesiz...
متن کاملNeuregulin growth factors and their ErbB receptors form a potential signaling network for schwannoma tumorigenesis.
Sporadic and neurofibromatosis type 2-associated schwannomas contain a glial growth factor (GGF)-like activity that has been hypothesized to promote neoplastic Schwann cell mitogenesis. It is not known whether this GGF-like activity is neuregulin-1 (NRG-1), an epidermal growth factor (EGF)-related molecule that regulates the proliferation, survival, and differentiation of developing Schwann cel...
متن کاملBiological and Clinicopathological Significance of Cripto-1 Expression in the Progression of Human ESCC
Background: Human Cripto-1, a member of the EGF-CFC family, is involved in embryonic development, embryonic stem cell maintenance, and tumor progression. It also participates in multiple cell signaling pathways including Wnt, Notch, and TGF-β. Remarkably, it is expressed in cancer stem cell (CSC) compartments, boosting tumor cell migration, invasion, and angiogenesis. Although Cripto-1 is ...
