The human erbB-2 oncogene encodes a tyrosine kinase receptor. A ligand for the erbB-2 receptor (gp30), with an apparent molecular weight of 30,000, was reported to modulate the growth of cells overexpressing erbB-2. Whereas low concentrations of gp30 induced proliferation of these cells, higher concentrations inhibited their growth. To elucidate the cellular mechanisms underlying cell growth in...
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to ErbB-2/HER2 or to its sibling, the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), prolong survival of cancer patients, especially when combined with cytotoxic therapies. However, low effectiveness of therapeutic mAbs and the evolution of patient resistance call for improvements. Here we test in animals pairs of anti-ErbB-2 mAbs and report that pairs comprising an antib...
Melanomas are characterized by activating "driver" mutations in BRAF, NRAS, KIT, GNAQ, and GNA11. Resultant mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway signaling makes some melanomas susceptible to BRAF (BRAF V600 mutations), MEK1/2 (BRAF V600, L597, fusions; NRAS mutations), or other kinase inhibitors (KIT), respectively. Among driver-negative ("pan-negative") patients, an unexplained hete...
Ectodomain cleavage of the ErbB-4 receptor tyrosine kinase generates a membrane-associated fragment of 80 kDa (m80) that has been subjected to N-terminal sequencing. The sequence obtained shows that the N terminus of this fragment begins with Ser-652 of ErbB-4. When a 12-residue peptide corresponding to ErbB-4 residues 646-657 was incubated with recombinant tumor necrosis factor-alpha-convertin...
The type I receptor tyrosine kinases constitute a family of transmembrane proteins involved in various aspects of cell growth and survival and have been implicated in the initiation and progression of several types of human malignancies. The best characterized of these proteins are the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and ErbB-2 (HER-2/neu). We have developed potent quinazoline and pyrid...
The erbB-2 (or HER-2 or neu) gene is amplified and overexpressed in approximately one-third of cancers of the breast, stomach, and ovary. Evidence is accumulating that erbB-2 overexpression is associated with decreased survival of breast cancer patients. In an effort to understand how erbB-2 overexpression might impart a more malignant potential to breast cancer cells, we have searched for evid...
Objective: The c-erbB-2 gene codes for a membrane receptor protein that is homologous to the epidermal growth factor receptor. It has been established as a prognostic factor in breast and other cancers. The prognostic role of c-erbB-2 expression and gene amplification in prostate carcinoma is still controversial. In this study, we searched for c-erbB-2 overexpression and gene amplification in p...
BACKGROUND Growth factors activating the ErbB receptors have been described in prostate tumors. The androgen dependent prostate cancer cell line, LNCaP, expresses the ErbB-1, ErbB-2 and ErbB-3 receptor tyrosine kinases. Previously, it was demonstrated that NRG activates ErbB-2/ErbB-3 heterodimers to induce LNCaP cell death, whereas, EGF activates ErbB-1/ErbB-1 or ErbB-1/ErbB-2 dimers to induce ...
Genetic damages are frequently found in both tumor and normal cells at carcinogen exposed areas in the patients with upper aerodigestive tract cancer. These phenomena are explained by the multistage process and/or field cancerization theories. The c-erbB-2 proto-oncogene has been amplified in many human tumors including breast, stomach, kidney and lung cancers. To study the possible evidence of...
OBJECTIVES To identify the prevalence of erbB-2 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in osteosarcoma biopsies and to correlate them with possible prognosis factors. METHODS Retrospective study conducted at the Hospital do Câncer de Barretos-SP including 27 osteosarcoma biopsies immunohistochemically stained for VEGF and erbB-2. The pathological characteristics were collected from med...
