EGFR-AKT-Smad Signaling Promotes Formation of Glioma Stem-like Cells and Tumor Angiogenesis by ID3-Driven Cytokine Induction
5 Oct 2011
Abstract excerpt
Aberrant activation of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) is causally linked to the pathobiological traits of glioblastoma and genesis of glioma stem-like cells (GSC), but the underlying mechanism is still unknown. Here, we show that epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling regulates the proliferation, angiogenesis, and acquisition of GSC characteristics by inducing inhibitor of differentiation 3 (ID3) and...
