Using the 21N polyclonal antibody, we immunohistochemically stained 314 primary breast carcinomas to identify those tumors overexpressing the c-erbB-2 oncoprotein and to ascertain the prognostic significance of this expression on disease-free and overall survival. Positive membrane staining was present in 52 (17%) of these carcinomas of which 7 (13%) were ductal carcinomas in situ. There was no...
Maspin is a unique member of the serpin family involved in regulation of cell migration, apoptosis and angiogenesis in breast and prostate cancers. In this study maspin expression in comparison with c-erbB-2 (HER2/neu) oncogene expression and microvessel density was investigated. The examined material included specimens of primary invasive ductal breast cancer derived from 69 patients. They wer...
Biliary tract cancer is still challenging to treat and manage due to its poor sensitivity to conventional therapies and the inability to prevent or detect the early tumor formation. The most well known risk factor for gallbladder cancer is the presence of chronic inflammation, usually related to gallstones. It has been suggested that cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) plays a variety of roles in the gast...
Two receptor tyrosine kinases, ErB-3 and ErbB-4, mediate signaling by Neu dierentiation factors (NDFs, also called neuregulins), while ErbB-1 and ErbB-2 serve as co-receptors. We show that the two NDF/neuregulin receptors dier in spatial and temporal expression patterns: The kinase-defective receptor, ErbB-3, is expressed primarily in epithelial layers of various organs, in the peripheral ner...
BACKGROUND The inactivation of the tumour suppressor gene and activation of the proto-oncogene are the key steps in the development of the human cancer. The p53 and c-erbB-2 are the best examples of it. In the present study, our aim was to determine the role of these genes in the carcinogenesis of gallbladder by immunohistochemistry. METHODS In all 78 consecutive patients of gall bladder dise...
ErbB-4 is a recently discovered member of the class I receptor tyrosine kinase family (ErbB). Little is known about its expression and its importance in human malignancy. To delineate the biological function of ErbB-4 receptors in breast cancer, we used a hammerhead ribozyme strategy to achieve down-regulation of ErbB-4 receptors in various breast cancer cell lines. We observed that down-regula...
BACKGROUND The 1999 WHO/IASLC histological classification of preneoplastic bronchial lesions has been shown to be reproducible, but little is known about its biological significance. The EGFR expression rate increases from normal epithelium to carcinoma in situ (CIS) with a significant difference between mild versus severe dysplasia. C-erbB-2, another member of the erbB family, is overexpressed...
We propose a new mechanism to explain autoinhibition of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR/ErbB) family of receptor tyrosine kinases based on a structural model that postulates both their juxtamembrane and protein tyrosine kinase domains bind electrostatically to acidic lipids in the plasma membrane, restricting access of the kinase domain to substrate tyrosines. Ligand-induced dimeriza...
Antisense activity against erbB-2 of a variety of sulfur-modified oligonucleotides was examined in a breast cancer cell line which overexpresses this oncogene. Using a 15 base anti-erbB-2 sequence previously shown to be effective, various backbone configurations containing phosphoromonothioate or phosphorodithioate linkages were evaluated for antisense activity by a two-color flow cytometric as...
Amplification and mRNA expression of the erbB-2 gene was analyzed in 61 samples of primary human breast carcinoma. In the 57 samples where RNA could be isolated four different expression level groups were identified. Comparison of hybridization signal with that for beta-actin revealed that erbB-2 mRNA could not be detected in 6 of 57 samples (11%), was detected at normal levels in 32 of 57 samp...
