バックグランド
Heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like growth factor (HBEGF) is a ligand for the EGF receptor (EGFR) and a critical molecular component to a number of normal physiological processes including but not limited to tissue injury and wound healing, reproduction, angiogenesis and recently, adipogenesis. Misexpression of HB-EGF is linked to tumor formation and cancer including hepatocellular, pancreatic, gastric, breast, colon and melanoma, gliomas and glioblastomas.
