Epidermal Growth Factor and Intestinal Barrier Function
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is a 53-amino acid peptide that plays an important role in regulating cell growth, survival, migration, apoptosis, proliferation, and differentiation. In addition, EGF has been established to be an effective intestinal regulator helping to protect intestinal barrier integrity, which was essential for the absorption of nutrients and health in humans and animals. Sev...
متن کاملEffect of One Time Irradiation of Uvb Non Keratinocyte Growth Factor Gene Expression in Mice
Purpose: Skin is continuously exposed to many hazardous environmental factors such as ultraviolet radiation (UV). Many investigations have been shown to cause skin damages. The aim of present research was to study the effect of a single time of UVB radiation on the expression pattern of keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) gene in mice. Materials and Methods: UVB (30 mJ/cm2 and 50 mJ/cm2) were rad...
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 کاملAssessment of epidermal growth factor receptor status in glioblastomas
Objective(s): Our previous study showed that a newly designed tracer radioiodinated 6-(3-morpholinopropoxy)-7-ethoxy-4-(3'-iodophenoxy)quinazoline ([125I]PYK) is promising for the evaluation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) status and prediction of gefitinib treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. EGFR is over-expressed and mutated also in glioblastoma. In the present study, the ...
متن کاملHepatocyte growth factor, keratinocyte growth factor, and other growth factor-receptor systems in the lens.
PURPOSE To examine the expression and function of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), keratinocyte growth factor (KGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF) and other growth factor-cytokine-receptor systems in lens epithelial cells. METHODS Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Northern blot analysis were used to examine the expression of messenger RNAs in primary cultured rabbit ...
