Altered Expression of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) in Glioma
EGFR is a key molecule in cancer cells. EGFR signaling was shown to promote tumor cell proliferation and survival, invasion and angiogenesis and mediate resistance to treatment, including ionizing radiation in preclinical models. We extracted proteins from astrocytoma (III and IV) oligodendroglioma(IV) tumors and normal brain tissues and then evaluated the protein purity by Bradford test ...
متن کاملcloning and expression of human keratinocyte growth factor in escherichia coli for recombinant drug production
results cloning was confirmed by pcr and restriction digestion. rt-pcr and sds-page represented expression of kgf in e. coli. the optimized expression was achieved 16 hours after induction with 0.3 mm iptg at 37°c in luria broth (lb) containing kanamycin. the 18 kda protein was confirmed by western blotting, using anti-his antibodies. conclusions the result of the present study indicated that e...
متن کاملKeratinocyte growth factor induces matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression and correlates with venous invasion in pancreatic cancer
Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF), also known as fibroblast growth factor-7, and KGF receptor (KGFR) play important roles in the growth of epithelial cells and are overexpressed in a variety of malignant epithelial tumors, including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). We previously reported that co-expression of KGF and KGFR in PDAC is associa...
متن کاملhuman epidermal growth factor receptor expression in colorectal cancer and its relationship with clinicopathological characteristics
background: some recent studies reported human epidermal growth factor receptor (her-2/neu) as a marker that can be used in immunological studies of colorectal carcinoma for predicting the prognosis and the treatment. therefore, we aimed to investigate the frequency of her-2 expression in patients with colorectal cancer, and explore the relationship between clinicopathological prognostic factor...
متن کاملExpression and roles of keratinocyte growth factor and its receptor in esophageal cancer cells.
The keratinocyte growth factor receptor (KGFR), also known as FGFR2 IIIb, is mainly localized in epithelial cells and is activated by the keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) that is predominantly synthesized by mesenchymal cells. In this study, we examined the roles of KGFR and KGF in human esophageal cancer (EC). In noncancerous esophageal tissues, KGFR was localized in epithelial cells from the ...
