The Functional Crosstalk between HER2 Tyrosine Kinase and TGF-<i>β</i>Signaling in Breast Cancer Malignancy
24 Feb 2011
Abstract excerpt
Accumulating evidence indicates a functional crosstalk between the HER2 (ErbB2) tyrosine kinase and the TGF-β signaling mediated by its serine/threonine kinase receptors. In HER2-overexpressing breast cancer, this crosstalk results in increased cancer cell proliferation, survival and invasion, accelerated cancer progression and metastasis in animal models, and resistance to chemotherapy and HER2-targeted therapy....
