Transforming growth factor-alpha (TGFโฃ) is an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) ligand which is distinguished from EGF by its acid-labile structure and potent transforming function. We recently reported that TGFโฃ induces less efficient EGFR heterodimerization and downregulation than does EGF (
Six different ligands of the epidermal-growth-factor receptor (EGFR) have been identified in the past. In some cervical squamous-cell carcinomas, an increased amount of proteins binding to the EGFR has been reported. In order to identify the mRNA of EGFR ligands (EGFRL), which might be overexpressed
The epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor plays a central role in numerous aspects of keratinocyte biology. In normal epidermis, the EGF receptor is important for autocrine growth of this renewing tissue, suppression of terminal differentiation, promotion of cell survival, and regulation of cell mi
