✦ Synopsis

Breast cancer cells are derived from epithelial cells lining the ducts of the breast. One of the fundamental characteristics that distinguish tumour cells from normal cells is that cancer cells grow in an apparently unregulated way. Understanding the mechanisms that regulate the growth and differentiation of normal breast epithelial cells and the differences between these systems in cancer cells is one of the central goals of research into the cell biology of breast cancer.

Background: Receptors belonging to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family transfer extracellular signals by homotypic and heterotypic receptor interaction and cross-activation. Cell differentiation, death, and proliferation are regulated via these receptor-tyrosine-kinases. However, the
