ERBB2-Mediated Transcriptional Up-regulation of the α5β1 Integrin Fibronectin Receptor Promotes Tumor Cell Survival Under Adverse Conditions
1 Apr 2006
Abstract excerpt
Oncogenic activation of the receptor tyrosine kinase ERBB2 is a key event in the development of a number of epithelial malignancies. In these tumors, high levels of ERBB2 are strongly associated with metastatic disease and poor prognosis. Paradoxically, an inherent cellular response to hypermitogenic signaling by ERBB2 and other oncogenes seems to be growth arrest, rather than proliferation. Molecular...
