Epidermal growth factor and its receptor (EGF-R) in human pituitary adenomas: EGF-R correlates with tumor aggressiveness.
1 Feb 1996
Abstract excerpt
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) has been localized in several human neoplasms and has been shown to have a significant correlation to prognosis. We investigated the potential role of the EGF receptor (EGF-R) system in pituitary tumorigenesis by examining the expression of EGF and EGF-R in the different types of human pituitary adenomas. EGF was identified by immunohistochemistry in all cell types of the nontumorous...
