Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Pathway

01

Overview

The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) pathway is a critical cell signaling cascade that regulates key biological processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, motility, and survival. EGFR is a member of the ErbB family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), which also includes ErbB2 (HER2/neu), ErbB3, and ErbB4. Dysregulation of the EGFR pathway is implicated in various cancers due to overexpression or activating mutations leading to persistent proliferative signals. Targeted therapies against EGFR include monoclonal antibodies (e.g., cetuximab) or small molecule inhibitors (e.g., erlotinib).
