摘要: Since human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is known to participate with the (EGFR) in mitogenic signalling, we hypothesised that HER2 overexpression might indicate responsiveness EGFR targeted therapies. MCF7 breast cancer cells transfected gene were subcloned establish a set of genetically related cell lines expressing graded levels by immunoblot analysis. The and parental characterised their characteristics, patterns EGFR, HER3 expression as well phosphorylated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) AKT laser scanning cytometry (LSC). Growth inhibition assays used characterise response therapy, determine relationship between therapeutic tyrosine expression. AG1478 AG1478-trastuzumab combinations correlated among different lines. Among HER3, was best single predictive marker, but two markers provided additional information.
