摘要: Human squamous cell carcinoma tissue was screened to determine the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor level. In 9 out of 15 cases, increased EGF binding observed relative normal adjacent tissue. two samples (SCE1 and SCL1), amplification gene mRNA level were also observed. other cases (SCE2 SCL3), did not occur. We propose that there is an alternative mechanism for hyperproduction, independent content, active in these tissues. A possible role hyperproduction envisioned human neoplasia.
