The presence of epidermal growth factor binding sites in the intracellular organelles of term human placenta.
Highly purified lysosomes, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus, as well as microvillus plasma membranes, bound 125I-labelled epidermal growth factor ([125I]EGF) with similar affinity. Scatchard plots for all the organelles were curvilinear. The apparent number of available binding sites per mg protein of intracellular organelles was 27-71% of that found in microvillus pl...
متن کاملFsrt for Pituitary Macroadenomas
The use of fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) has evolved with technical advances in noninvasive immobilization, radiation delivery, and image guidance. The application of FSRT to pituitary tumours is aimed at reducing toxicity through improved dose conformality and reduced treatment margins. The aim of the present paper is to report our own experience and to review the published dat...
متن کاملGene expression and immunolocalization of heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor and human epidermal growth factor receptors in human corpus luteum.
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to elucidate gene expression and immunolocalization of heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF) and human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER) family in the human ovary during luteal growth and regression. METHODS Ovaries obtained from pre-menopausal women were used for immunohistochemistry and semiquantitative RT-PCR ana...
متن کاملAltered 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 کاملproduction of human epidermal growth factor using adenoviral based system
epidermal growth factor (egf), a growth factor involved in cell growth and differentiation, is a small polypeptide with molecular weight of approximately 6 kda known to be present in a number of different mammalian species. experimental studies in animals and humans have demonstrated that the topical application of egf accelerates the rate of epidermal regeneration of partial-thickness wounds a...
