Transgenic Soybean Production of Bioactive Human Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating condition of premature infants that results from the gut microbiome invading immature intestinal tissues. This results in a life-threatening disease that is frequently treated with the surgical removal of diseased and dead tissues. Epidermal growth factor (EGF), typically found in bodily fluids, such as amniotic fluid, salvia and mother's breast ...
متن کاملEpidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor kinase-independent signaling by EGF.
The ErbB family of receptors, which includes the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), ErbB2, ErbB3, and ErbB4, mediate signaling by EGF-like polypeptides. To better understand the role of the EGFR tyrosine kinase, we analyzed signaling by a kinase-inactive EGFR (K721M) in ErbB-devoid 32D cells. K721M alone exhibited no detectable signaling capacity, whereas coexpression of K721M with ErbB2,...
متن کاملAssessment of Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) Effects on Development of Vitrified Mouse Morulae to the Blastocyst Stage
Many investigators are interested in finding the new cultural systems that can support the in vitro development of pre-implantation embryos better. Previous studies suggested that growth factors such as epidermal growth factor (EGF) are important in pre-implantation embryo development and implantation process. On the other hand, it is very important to support post thaw development of frozen em...
متن کاملHuman cytomegalovirus infection inhibits epidermal growth factor (EGF) signalling by targeting EGF receptors.
Infection with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is known to involve complex interactions between viral and cellular factors resulting in perturbation of a number of cellular functions. Specifically, HCMV infection targets control of the cell cycle, cellular transcription and immunoregulation, presumably to optimize the cellular environment for virus persistence and productive infection. Here, we sh...
متن کاملEpidermal growth factor (EGF)-like repeats of human tenascin-C as ligands for EGF receptor
Signaling through growth factor receptors controls such diverse cell functions as proliferation, migration, and differentiation. A critical question has been how the activation of these receptors is regulated. Most, if not all, of the known ligands for these receptors are soluble factors. However, as matrix components are highly tissue-specific and change during development and pathology, it ha...
