Abstract:ERBB4 is commonly over-expressed in human CRC, however the utility of ERBB4 as a target for colorectal cancer (CRC) therapeutics is largely unexplored. Our group recently identified a molecular subtype of CRC that arises independent of EGFR and displays a more aggressive growth phenotype than those dependent on EGFR. The robust growth phenotype of EGFR-independent tumors can be in part attributed to upregulation of IL10 signaling. In addition, EGFR-independent tumors display a significant upregulation of Erbb2… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
