Epidermal growth factor (EGF) causes gender-and development-specific changes in fetal lung surfactant synthesis. We hypothesized that the effects of EGF on development of surfactant synthesis are related to effects on EGF receptor (EGF-R) expression. We prepared sex-specific fetal rabbit lung organ

A number of studies suggest that an inverse correlation exists between the epidermal growth factor-receptor and the estrogen receptor expression in primary human breast carcinoma as well as in established human breast carcinoma cell lines. Recent studies suggest that the epidermal growth factor-rece
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND 2,3,7,8โTetrachlorodibenzoโpโdioxin (TCDD) is teratogenic in mice, producing cleft palate (CP). TCDD exposure disrupts expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor, EGF, and transforming growth factorโฮฑ (TGFฮฑ) in the palate and affects proliferation and differenti
