Abstract:The ErbB-family receptors play pivotal roles in the proliferation, migration, and survival of epithelial cells. Because our knowledge on the ErbB-family receptors was obtained largely by the exogenous application of their ligands, it remains unknown to which extent each of the ErbB contributes to these outputs. We here knocked out each ErbB gene, various combinations of ErbB genes, or all in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells to delineate the contribution of each gene.

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.
