Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is a very common lethal monogenetic disease with significant morbidities and a high likelihood of progression to renal failure for which there is no proven disease-specific therapy currently available for clinical use. Human ADPKD cystic epithelia have proliferative abnormalities mediated by EGFR over-expression and mispolarization leading autocrine response to EGF family ligands. We now show that apical localization of EGFR complexes in normal fetal and ADPKD epithelia is associated with heterodimerization of EGFR(HER-1) with HER-2(neu/ErbB2), while basal membrane localization in normal adult renal epithelia is associated with EGFR(HER-1) homodimers. Since ADPKD epithelial cells have reduced migratory function, this was used as a bioassay to evaluate the ability of compounds to rescue the aberrant human ADPKD phenotype. General tyrosine kinase inhibition by herbimycin and specific inhibition of HER-2(neu/ErbB2) by AG825 or pretreatment with ErbB2 siRNA reversed the migration defect of ADPKD epithelia. Selective inhibition of EGFR(HER-1) showed partial rescue. Increased ADPKD cell migration after inhibition of p38MAP kinase but not of PI3-kinase implicated p38MAPK downstream of HER-2(neu/ErbB2) stimulation. Daily administration of AG825 to PKD1 null heterozygous mice significantly inhibited the development of renal cysts. These studies implicate HER2(neu/ErbB2) as an effector of apical EGFR complex mispolarization and that its inhibition should be considered a candidate for clinical therapy of ADPKD. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR or HER-1) and its analog c-erbB-2 (HER-2) are protein tyrosine kinases correlated with prognosis and response to therapy in a variety of human cancers. KRAS mediates the transduction of signals between EGFR and the nucleus, and its mutation has been identified as a predictor of resistance to anti-EGFR drugs. In human oncology, the importance of the EGFR/HER-2/KRAS signalling pathway in gastric cancer is well established, and HER-2 testing is required before initiating therapy. Conversely, this pathway has never been investigated in canine gastric tumours. A total of 19 canine gastric epithelial neoplasms (5 adenomas and 14 carcinomas) were retrospectively evaluated for EGFR/HER-2 immunohistochemical expression and KRAS mutational status. Five (35.7%) carcinomas were classified as intestinal-type and 9 (64.3%) as diffuse-type. EGFR was overexpressed (≥1+) in 8 (42.1%) cases and HER-2 (3+) in 11 (57.9%) cases, regardless of tumour location or biological behaviour. The percentage of EGFR-positive tumours was significantly higher in the intestinal-type (80%) than in the diffuse-type (11.1%, p = 0.023). KRAS gene was wild type in 18 cases, whereas one mucinous carcinoma harboured a point mutation at codon 12 (G12R). EGFR and HER-2 may be promising prognostic and therapeutic targets in canine gastric epithelial neoplasms. The potential presence of KRAS mutation should be taken into account as a possible mechanism of drug resistance. Further studies are necessary to evaluate the role of dog as a model for human gastric cancer. 相似文献

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and the ErbB receptor family holds crucial role in its pathogenesis. Among them, epidermal growth factor receptor and HER-2 are the most studied members and their overexpression has been associated with aggressive clinical behaviour. These data were further strengthened by the clinical success of trastuzumab, a monoclonal antibody against HER-2 in breast cancer patients with HER-2 overexpression and/or amplification. However, trastuzumab failure in some patients may partly be attributed to co-expression of other ErbB receptors. Herein, we provide updated views regarding the role of HER-3 and HER-4 in breast cancer. Accumulated evidence implies that these receptors should be considered more than heterodimerisation partners. Their expression profile might be useful in predicting responsiveness to current treatment options, while new strategies targeting their ligands and downstream effectors are being developed. 相似文献

ErbB-receptors expression and survival in breast carcinoma: a 15-year follow-up study 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Aberrant expression of the epidermal growth factor receptor family has been implicated in the pathogenesis and progression of breast cancer and associated with poor prognosis. To evaluate the prognostic impact of the ErbB receptors expression profile, we analyzed a well-characterized series of 145 primary breast carcinomas for the simultaneous expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR/HER-1), ErbB-2 (HER-2), ErbB-3 (HER-3), and ErbB-4 (HER-4), using immunohistochemistry. Tumors were considered negative or positive for each marker when less than or more than 25% of the cancer cells were immunopositive. Expression of EGFR, ErbB-2, ErbB-3, and ErbB-4 was observed in 31 (21.4%), 65 (44.8%), 72 (49.7%), and 81 (55.9%) of the cases, respectively. There were significant associations between EGFR expression and pT status (P = 0.01), and between ErbB-3 expression and pN (P = 0.003), menopausal (P = 0.01) and PR (P < 0.001) status. The majority of the cases co-expressed two or more receptors. ErbB-3 resulted positive in 51/81 (63.0%) of the ErbB-4 positive cases and ErbB-3/ErbB-4 co-expression was statistically significant (P = 0.0003). As expected, ErbB-2 expression was associated with reduced overall survival at 15 years of follow-up (P = 0.04), even after adjusting for a series of other prognostic factors (P = 0.05). Moreover, cumulative analysis of ErbB-2/3/4 expression showed a strong positive association between higher total ErbB-2/3/4 expression score and worse prognosis (P = 0.002). The simultaneous expression in cancer cells of more than one ErbB receptor identifies a subset of breast cancer patients at high risk for poor survival. 相似文献

A strategy of full-site occupancy and stereospecific recognition in the triphosphate subsite was used to specifically inhibit two protein kinases HER-2 and HER-4 from the EGFR family. The SAR profiles of a panel of adenosine-anchored bicyclic heterocycles against HER-2 and HER-4 indicated that specificity can be derived for highly homologous protein kinases from stereospecific recognition in the triphosphate-subsite. 相似文献

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a member of the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases. This family includes EGFR/ErbB1/HER1, ErbB2/HER2/Neu ErbB3/HER3, and ErbB4/HER4. For many years it was believed that EGFR plays a minor role in the development and progression of breast malignancies. However, recent findings have led investigators to revisit these beliefs. Here we will review these findings and propose roles that EGFR may play in breast malignancies. In particular, we will discuss the potential roles that EGFR may play in triple-negative tumors, resistance to endocrine therapies, maintenance of stem-like tumor cells, and bone metastasis. Thus, we will propose the contexts in which EGFR may be a therapeutic target. 相似文献

Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2)/neu (ErbB2), a member of the epidermal growth factor family of receptors, is overexpressed in 20-30% of breast cancers. It is an attractive target for receptor-directed antitumor therapy using mAbs. Unlike other epidermal growth factor receptor family members, HER-2/neu does not bind a high-affinity ligand, but rather functions as the preferred dimerization partner. Pertuzumab (Omnitarg) is a humanized mAb directed against the HER-2/neu dimerization domain that inhibits receptor signaling. The recent definition of the crystal structure of the HER-2/neu-pertuzumab complex demonstrated that the receptor dimerization region encompassed residues 266-333. Based on the three-dimensional structure of the complex, we have designed three conformational peptide constructs (sequences 266-296, 298-333, and 315-333) to mimic regions of the dimerization loop of the receptor and to characterize their in vitro and in vivo antitumor efficacy. All the constructs elicited high-affinity peptide Abs that inhibited multiple signaling pathways including HER-2/neu-specific inhibition of cellular proliferation and cytoplasmic receptor domain phosphorylation. All the peptide Abs showed Ab-dependent cellular cytotoxicity to varying degrees with the 266-296 constructs being equally effective as compared with Herceptin. The 266-296 peptide vaccine had statistically reduced tumor onset in both transplantable tumor models (FVB/n and BALB/c) and significant reduction in tumor development in two transgenic mouse tumor models (BALB-neuT and VEGF(+/-)Neu2-5(+/-)). The 266-296 construct represents the most promising candidate for antitumor vaccination and could also be used to treat a variety of cancers with either normal or elevated expression of HER-2 including breast, lung, ovarian, and prostate. 相似文献

Mammalian kidney expresses all of the members of the ErbB family of receptors and their respective ligands. Studies support a role for ErbB family receptor activation in kidney development and differentiation. Under physiologic conditions, EGFR activation appears to play an important role in the regulation of renal hemodynamics and electrolyte handling by the kidney, while in different pathophysiologic states, EGFR activation may mediate either beneficial or detrimental effects to the kidney. This article provides an overview of the expression profile of the ErbB family of ligands and receptors in the mammalian kidney and summarizes known physiological and pathophysiological roles of EGFR activation in the organ. 相似文献

This review article describes the pathways and mechanisms of endocytosis and post-endocytic sorting of the EGF receptor (EGFR/ErbB1) and other members of the ErbB family. Growth factor binding to EGFR accelerates its internalization through clathrin-coated pits which is followed by the efficient lysosomal targeting of internalized receptors and results in receptor down-regulation. The role of EGFR interaction with the Grb2 adaptor protein and Cbl ubiquitin ligase, and receptor ubiquitination in the clathrin-dependent internalization and sorting of EGFR in multivesicular endosomes is discussed. Activation and phosphorylation of ErbB2, ErbB3 and ErbB4 also results in their ubiquitination. However, these ErbBs are internalized and targeted to lysosomes less efficiently than EGFR. When overexpressed endocytosis-impaired ErbBs may inhibit the internalization and degradation of EGFR. 相似文献

Down-regulation of receptor tyrosine kinase activity plays an essential role in coordinating and controlling cellular growth/differentiation. Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaM kinase II)-mediated phosphorylation of threonine 1172 in the cytoplasmic tail of HER2/c-erbB2 can modulate tyrosine kinase activity and consensus phosphorylation sites are also found at serines 1046/1047 in the structurally related epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). We show that serines 1046/1047 are sites for CaM kinase II phosphorylation, although there is a preference for serine 1047, which resides within the consensus -R-X-X-S-. In addition, we have identified major phosphorylation sites at serine 1142 and serine 1057, which lie within a novel -S-X-D- consensus. Mutation of serines 1046/1047 in full-length EGFR enhanced both fibroblast transformation and tyrosine autokinase activity that was significantly potentiated by additional mutation of serines 1057 and 1142. A single CaM kinase II site was also identified at serine 744 within sub-kinase domain III, and autokinase activity was significantly affected by mutation of this serine to an aspartic acid making this site appear constitutively phosphorylated. We have addressed the mechanism by which CaM kinase II phosphorylation of the EGFR might regulate receptor autokinase activity and show that this modification can hinder association of the cytoplasmic tail with the kinase domain to prevent an enzyme-substrate interaction. We postulate that the location and greater number of CaM kinase II phosphorylation sites in the EGFR compared with HER-2/c-erbB2, leading to differential regulation of autokinase activity, contributes to differences in the strength of downstream signaling events and may explain the higher relative transforming potential of HER-2/cerbB2. 相似文献

Increasing evidence has shown that mammaglobin, GATA-binding protein 3 (GATA3), and epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR) have unique clinical implications for breast cancer subtyping and classification, as well as for breast cancer targeted therapy. It is particularly important to clarify the correlation between their expression and different molecular breast carcinoma subtypes to better understand the molecular basis of the subtypes and to identify effective therapeutic targets for the disease. This study aimed to evaluate mammaglobin, GATA3, and EGFR expression in different breast cancer subtypes, as well as their clinical significance. Subjects of the study included 228 patients with breast cancer at The First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China. They were divided into triple negative (TN), Luminal A, Luminal B, and HER-2 positive (HER-2.P) breast cancer groups based on molecular classification. Immunohistochemical methods were used to detect mammaglobin, GATA3, and EGFR expression in cases of different molecular subtypes before determining the correlation between protein expression and subtype. Mammaglobin and GATA3 expression levels were found to significantly vary with respect to histopathological grade, lymph node status, and molecular subtype; EGFR expression was significantly correlated with breast cancer histopathological grade and molecular subtype. For breast cancer, the expression levels of mammaglobin and GATA3, as well as mammaglobin and EGFR, were significantly correlated. In addition, there was a significantly negative correlation between the expression levels of GATA3 and EGFR in breast cancer tissue samples, especially in HER-2.P samples. These findings provide a theoretical basis for assessing breast cancer clinical prognosis based on the cancer subtype, and hence, have significant practical value.Key words: breast cancer, mammaglobin, GATA-binding protein 3, epithelial growth factor receptor, molecular subtype 相似文献

INTRODUCTION: The growth factor receptors EGFR and HER-2/neu are targets for new treatment strategies and are of potential use as prognostic and predictive factors. However, the optimal method of determination in order to obtain clinically relevant information remains a source of controversy. METHODS: HER-2/neu and EGFR expression was examined by immunohistochemistry in primary tumors of patients with breast cancer. In addition, serum was tested for the extracellular domains of HER-2/neu (HER-2/neu ECD) and EGFR (sEGFR) before initiation of therapy for metastatic disease (n=76). The course of disease from the time of metastasis with regard to these parameters was evaluated by univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: HER-2/neu ECD levels at the time of metastatic disease were correlated with HER-2/neu expression determined by immunohistochemistry from primary tumors (p=0.001). No correlation was observed between expression of EGFR in primary tumors and sEGFR serum levels. HER-2/neu ECD and sEGFR levels at the onset of metastatic disease did not show a significant impact on overall survival. CONCLUSIONS: Determination of HER-2/neu ECD levels in the serum measured by ELISA at the onset of metastatic disease could offer an alternative to immunohistochemistry of the primary tumor since serum levels are correlated with protein expression in primary tumors. In contrast, no such correlation was observed for EGFR. 相似文献

The Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) is a member of the receptor tyrosine kinase family and has important roles in development and cancer. Through ligand stimulation, the EGFR initiates a number of biochemical pathways that integrate to form specific physiological responses. In addition to these signaling pathways, the ligand stimulation also causes the EGFR to internalize and be transported through the endocytic pathway. The endocytic pathway regulates the rate of EGFR degradation and recycling, as well as the signaling mediated by the EGFR. In this review, the role of rabs, a family of small molecular weight guanine nucleotide binding proteins, is examined in how they regulate endocytic trafficking. 相似文献

The HER-2/neu oncogene, a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor or erb gene family, encodes a transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptor that has been linked to prognosis and response to therapy with the anti-HER-2-humanized monoclonal antibody, trastuzumab (Herceptin, Genentech, South San Francisco, CA) in patients with advanced metastatic breast cancer. HER-2/neu status has also been tested for its ability to predict the response of breast cancer to other therapies including hormonal therapies, topoisomerase inhibitors, and anthracyclines. This review includes an analysis of 80 published studies encompassing more than 25,000 patients designed to consider the relative advantages and disadvantages of the various methods of measuring HER-2/neu in clinical breast cancer specimens. Southern blotting, PCR amplification detection, and fluorescence in situ hybridization assays designed to detect HER-2/neu gene amplification are compared with HER-2/neu protein overexpression assays performed by immunohistochemical techniques applied to frozen and paraffin-embedded tissues and enzyme immunoassays performed on tumor cytosols. The significance of HER-2/neu overexpression in ductal carcinoma in situ and the HER-2/neu status in uncommon female breast conditions and male breast cancer are also considered. The role of HER-2/neu testing for the prediction of response to trastuzumab therapy in breast cancer is reviewed along with the current studies designed to test whether HER-2/neu status can predict the response to standard and newer hormonal therapies, cytotoxic chemotherapy, and radiation. The review will also evaluate the status of serum-based testing for circulating HER-2/neu receptor protein and its ability to predict disease outcome and therapy response. 相似文献

Proline‐rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) is a member of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) non‐receptor tyrosine kinase family and has been found to promote cancer cell survival, proliferation, migration, invasion, and metastasis. Pyk2 takes part in different carcinogenic signaling pathways to promote cancer progression, including epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway. EGFR signaling pathway is a traditional carcinogenic signaling pathway, which plays a critical role in tumorigenesis and tumor progression. FAK inhibitors have been reported to fail to get the ideal anti‐cancer outcomes because of activation of EGFR signaling pathway. Better understanding of Pyk2 downstream targets and interconnectivity between Pyk2 and carcinogenic EGFR signaling pathway will help finding more effective targets for clinical anti‐cancer combination therapies. Thus, the interconnectivity between Pyk2 and EGFR signaling pathway, which regulates tumor development and metastasis, needs to be elucidated. In this review, we summarized the downstream targets of Pyk2 in cancers, focused on the connection between Pyk2 and EGFR signaling pathway in different cancer types, and provided a new overview of the roles of Pyk2 in EGFR signaling pathway and cancer development. 相似文献
