PURPOSE To investigate the action of epidermal growth factor (EGF) on corneal keratocyte differentiation and its effects in conjunction with transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1. METHODS Rabbit corneal keratocytes (RCKs) were treated with EGF, TGF-beta1, or EGF plus TGF-beta1 in the presence or absence of inhibitors of EGF-receptor (EGF-R), neutralizing concentrations of EGF antibody and of...
Heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF), a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family, is expressed during inflammatory and pathological conditions. We have cloned the rat HB-EGF and followed the expression of HB-EGF in rat kidneys treated with anti- glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) antibody (Ab) to induce glomerulonephritis (GN). We observed glomerula...
Exogenous EGF and TGF-alpha accelerate wound healing, but treatment effects are often modest. Using short-term human skin organ culture, we found that autocrine EGF receptor activation could account for this observation. Amphiregulin and heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HB-EGF) transcripts were rapidly and markedly induced, whereas EGF and TGF-alpha mRNAs were undetectable or only slight...
Members of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family are the most important growth factors involved in epithelialization during cutaneous wound healing. Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HB-EGF), a member of the EGF family, is thought to play an important role in skin wound healing. To investigate the in vivo function of HB-EGF in skin wound healing, we generated keratinocyte-specific HB-E...
It is well established that epidermal growth factor (EGF) is a potent mitogen in cells expressing EGF receptor (EGFR). However, a body of evidence indicated that the effects of mitogenic EGF signaling exhibit a non-monotonic, or biphasic dose response curve; EGF at low concentrations elicits a mitogenic signaling pathway to stimulate cell proliferation while at high concentrations, EGF inhibits...
Internalization of ligand-receptor complexes is a well-documented mechanism for limiting the duration and magnitude of a signaling event. In the case of the EGF-Receptor (EGF-R), exposure to EGF or TGF-alpha results in internalization of up to 95% of the surface receptor pool within 5 minutes of exposure to ligand. In this report, we show that levels of Drosophila Egf-r mRNA are strongly down-r...
A431 cells overexpress epidermal growth factor receptors (EGF-Rs) and are inhibited by EGF. We show that treatment of A431 cells with 10 nM EGF induced a 15-fold increase in EGF-R autophosphorylation, leading to inhibition of cell proliferation and morphological features of apoptosis. However, at a lower concentration of EGF (0.01 nM), there is a 2-fold increase in EGF-R autophosphorylation and...
The promotion of cell survival and regeneration in acute renal failure (ARF) is important for the restitution of renal function. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) has been implicated in the regulation of cell proliferation. We provide evidence for a direct link between EGF, nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB), and cell cycle regulation (cyclin D1). EGF was found to stimulate NF-kappaB-dependent gene ...
