melanoma
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE The current meta-analyses results suggest that the XPD gene, but not the EGF gene, has contributed to CM susceptibility, and XPD is a possible drug target. 25537294 2015
CUI: C0025202
Disease: melanoma
melanoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE This points to HER4 as an important receptor in malignant melanoma and also raises the question of whether the other receptors in the EGF system could be involved. 24366194 2014

melanoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Stable EGF knockdown (EGFkd) in EGF-high (M24met) and EGF-low (A375) expressing melanoma cells was generated. 22951723 2013
CUI: C0025202
Disease: melanoma
melanoma
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE In conclusion, this meta-analysis indicates that EGF +61A>G polymorphism might not be a primary determinant in melanoma development and progression; EGF gene might be expected to interact with other genes in different signaling pathways to initiate and promote the carcinogenic process. 23201894 2013

0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Suppression of endogenous RasGRP3 expression in these melanoma cell lines reduced Ras-GTP formation as well as c-Met expression and Akt phosphorylation downstream from hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) or epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulation. 21602881 2011
CUI: C0025202
Disease: melanoma
melanoma
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Using RNAi this EGFR activation was further shown to depend on the metalloproteases ADAM9 and ADAM17 in SCC-9 cells. cDNA array hybridization and RT-PCR analysis showed overexpression of a Disintegrin and a Metalloproteases (ADAMs) and EGF family proligands in melanoma cell lines. 19003995 2009

0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Analysis of RaLP in melanoma signal transduction pathways revealed that (a) when ectopically expressed in RaLP-negative melanocytes and nonmetastatic melanoma cells, it functions as a substrate of activated insulin-like growth factor-1 and epidermal growth factor receptors and increases Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling and cell migration, whereas (b) its silencing in RaLP-positive melanoma cells abrogates cell migration in vitro, without affecting MAPK signaling, suggesting that RaLP activates both Ras-dependent and Ras-independent migratory pathways in melanomas. 17409413 2007
