## Abstract The epidermal growth factor (EGF) plays a role in the development of prostate cancer, which becomes essential after androgen resistance has emerged. The EGF receptor (EGFR) is therefore a potential target for anticancer therapy. We evaluated the effects of ZD1839 (‘Iressa’), an orally a

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND It was recently shown that neuropilin‐1 (NRP‐1), which was described originally as a receptor for the semaphorins/collapsins (ligands involved in neuronal guidance), is a coreceptor for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and increases the affinity of specific isofo

## Abstract Although the blockade of the hedgehog cascade by using cyclopamine has been reported to inhibit the growth of some cancer cell types, few studies on the mechanism by which this drug alone or in combination with other cytotoxic agents induces its cytotoxic effect have been reported. In o
