Abstract excerpt
EphA2 receptor tyrosine kinase is frequently overexpressed in different human cancers, suggesting that it may promote tumor development and progression. However, evidence also exists that EphA2 may possess antitumorigenic properties, raising a critical question on the role of EphA2 kinase in tumorigenesis in vivo. We report here that deletion of EphA2 in mouse led to markedly enhanced susceptibility to...
