Abstract excerpt
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) plays important roles in multiple biological processes, such as the regulation of cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation. EGF exerts their pharmacologic effects via receptor-mediated mechanism associated with high affinity to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) on the cell surface. Overexpression of EGFR has been reported and implicated in the pathogenesis of many human...
