Epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulated the release of GDP induced by isoproterenol from isolated liver membrane. This GDP release was not induced by EGF only. The stimulatory effect of EGF was dependent on the presence of Mg2+. These results suggests that EGF receptor indirectly couples with GS-protein.

Background: Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) has a poor prognosis, necessitating the investigation of novel treatments and targets. This study evaluated JNJ-70218902 (JNJ-902), a T-cell redirector targeting transmembrane protein with epidermal growth factor-like and 2 follistatin-like domains 2 (TMEFF2) and cluster of differentiation 3, in mCRPC.
Patients And Methods: Patients who had measurable/evaluable mCRPC after at least one novel androgen receptor-targeted therapy or chemotherapy were eligible.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer, often linked to overexpression or abnormal activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). The issue of developing resistance to third-generation EGFR kinase inhibitors, such as osimertinib, underscores the urgent need for new therapies to overcome this resistance. Our findings revealed that compound A8 exhibits 88.

Purpose: To study the association between clinicopathologic characteristics of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and risk of subsequent invasive breast cancer (IBC).
Methods: We conducted a case-control study nested in a multicenter, population-based cohort of 8175 women aged ≥ 18 years with DCIS diagnosed between 1987 and 2016 and followed for a median duration of 83 months. Cases (n = 497) were women with a first diagnosis of DCIS who developed a subsequent IBC ≥ 6 months later; controls (2/case; n = 959) were matched to cases on age at and calendar year of DCIS diagnosis.

Background: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the most common genetic cardiomyopathy and causes major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). SVEP1 (Sushi, von Willebrand factor type A, epidermal growth factor, and pentraxin domain containing 1) is a large extracellular matrix protein that is detectable in the plasma. However, it is unknown whether adding plasma SVEP1 levels to clinical predictors including NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide) improves the prognostication in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Background: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are the first-line therapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with sensitized mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (). However, resistance to TKIs is a major clinical issue that affects the survival and prognosis of the patients, with the mechanisms underlying this resistance remaining elusive. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of single-stranded, covalently closed RNA molecules, which are generated from pre-messenger RNAs (mRNAs) through back splicing.
