The EGF receptor family biologic mechanisms and role in cancer

The enormity of the literature on growth factors, plus the breadth of the biological disciplines and technical expertise required prohibits a comprehensive review by even a multi-disciplinary panel of authors. To provide an alternative that is feasible for authors and digestible by readers, this review compendium consists of a collection of articles, each covering an aspect of the ErbB/EGF field. This compilation features articles on growth factor ligands, neuregulins, and individual receptors. The second part of the book concentrates on the biological context of the ErbB receptors, particularly in mammary development and in cancer. It concludes with a discussion of the genetic systems that have enabled significant advances in research in this area.

  • "Since first described in 1962, research has proliferated on the epidermal growth factor (EGF). Although each chapter of this volume covers a limited aspect of the ErbB/EGF field, together they constitute nearly complete coverage of the topic. Included are chapters on growth factor ligands and individual receptors, a chapter on the intracellular trafficking of these receptors, and chapters concentrating on the biological context of ErbB receptors, particularly in mammary development and in cancer."
