AMPLIFICATION OF c-erbB-2 ONCOGENE IN HUMAN ADENOCARCINOMAS IN VIVO
摘要：
There are two genes related to the viral erbB gene in the human genome. c- erbB-1 is the same as the gene for the epithelial-growth-factor (EGF) receptor, and c-erbB-2 encodes a receptor-like protein very similar to, but distinct from, the EGF receptor. Hybridisation analysis of DNA from 101 fresh human malignant tumours showed that the c- erbB-2 gene was amplified in 5 of 63 adenocarcinomas and none of 38 other types of tumours, whereas the c- erbB-1/EGF-receptor gene was amplified only in 1 of 8 squamous-cell carcinomas. Thus, the protein products of the amplified c- erbB-2 gene may have a role in the evolution of adenocarcinomas, as does the EGF receptor in some squamous-cell carcinomas.
