Disease: Hepatocarcinogenesis
Hepatocarcinogenesis
0.030 Biomarker disease BEFREE When transducing hepatocytes with a dominant-negative ErbB1-construct, HB-EGF-induced DNA-replications were blocked completely in unaltered hepatocytes but incompletely in initiated/premalignant cells, which suggests elevated ErbB-mediated signal transduction in first stages of hepatocarcinogenesis. 18929421 2008
