Hence, the aim of this study was to explore the therapeutic efficacy and underlying mechanism of the sensitization to radiation or cisplatin of icotinib hydrochloride (IH), a high-selective EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), in the Hela S3 human CC cell line.
In conclusion, this study provides a rationale to initiate a clinical trial for cervical cancer with adoptively transferred allogeneic NK cells, employing either UCB-NK or PBNK + CET for EGFR-expressing tumors.
In this study, we found that C23 and EGFR were highly expressed in cervical cancer tissues, while C23 on the cell surface mainly expressed in CC tissues with lymph node metastasis, and was correlated to EGFR statistically.
These results showed that miR-133a suppresses cervical cancer growth in vitro and in vivo through targeting EGFR, suggesting that miR-133a can be a potential target for the treatment of cervical cancer.
EGFR promoter methylation status and EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor-sensitive mutations in cervical cancer may be significant for clinical outcome prediction using anti-EGFR treatment.
Studies in cervical cancer indicate that E5 increases epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) recycling to the cell surface and enhances growth factor signal transduction.
A novel assay detecting the EGFR promoter methylation status in cervical cancer tissue samples using a hybridization-fluorescence polarization (FP) technique was developed.
We investigated the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human epidermal growth factor receptor (ERBB) family with cervical cancer.
Although epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is highly expressed in breast and ovarian tumor tissues, its regulation by the exogenous source of its ligand EGF in human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated cervical cancer remains unclear.
Membranous expression of ectodomain isoforms of the epidermal growth factor receptor predicts outcome after chemoradiotherapy of lymph node-negative cervical cancer.
Since immortalization by HPV E6/E7 is an important early event in cervical carcinogenesis, the EGFR is a potential target for chemoprevention or therapy in women who have a high risk for cervical cancer.
