Overexpression of Epidermal Growth Factor and Insulin-like Growth Factor-I Receptors and Autocrine Stimulation in Human Esophageal Carcinoma Cells1
The growth-stimulatory effects of epidermal growth factor (EGF), transforming growth factor a (TGF-a), and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) on the human esophageal carcinoma cell line CE48T/VGH were evaluated. Under serum-free conditions, EGF, TGF-a, and IGF-I pro moted 3.6to 4.1-fold increased cell proliferation. Scatchard analyses and Northern blot hybridization revealed that both the EGF...
متن کاملFunctional and Molecular Characterization of C91S Mutation in the Second Epidermal Growth Factor-like Domain of Factor VII
Background: Coagulation Factor VII is a vitamin K-dependent serine protease which has a pivotal role in the initiation of the coagulation cascade. The congenital Factor VII deficiency is a recessive hemorrhagic disorder that occurs due to mutations of F7 gene. In the present study C91S (p.C91S) substitution was detected in a patient with FVII deficiency. This mutation has not b...
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...
متن کاملOptimization and Construction of Human Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 Gene related to human health
Background and aims: Laron syndrome is a disease that treated by Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1). This protein is a single chain and has three disulfide bonds. People with Laron syndrome have low rates of cancer and diabetes, although they appear to be at increased risk of casual death due to their stature. IGF-1 is synthesized by many tissues and is secreted from liver as an endocrine hor...
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 ...
