Type beta transforming growth factor (B-TGF) is a potent growth inhibitor to many human tumor cell lines. Very little is known about the mechanism for this growth inhibitory action of B-TGF. We here report the effect of B-TGF on proliferation and epidermal growth factor receptor (R-EGF) expression i

High expression of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in breast carcinoma confers a growth advantage to the tumor cells. The EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) ZD1839 ('Iressa') has clinical activity in a wide range of tumor types, although the mechanism(s) by which it exerts its ant
## Abstract Selective tyrosine kinase inhibitors are regarded as promising antitumor agents for cancer treatment. Iressaยฎ (ZD1839) is an orally active, selective EGFRโTKI (epidermal growth factor receptorโtyrosine kinase inhibitor) that blocks signal transduction pathways implicated in cancer cell
A cloned human hepatoma cell line (Li-7A), possessing epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors numbering in the range of 10-20 pmol/106 cells, was inhibited in its growth by EGF as well as an antagonist monoclonal antibody (MoAb) to the EGF receptor. The mode of action of the two ligands of EGF recep
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFRโTKIs) have demonstrated clinical benefit in patients with nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC), particularly those with tumors that have EGFRโTK domain mutations. Moreover, the EGFR and cyclooxygenase (COX)โ2
