Modular anti‐EGFR and anti‐Her2 targeting of SK‐BR‐3 and BT474 breast cancer cell lines in the presence of ErbB receptor‐specific growth factors

Abstract: Over the last decade, a number of monoclonal antibodies and small molecule inhibitors emerged as potent therapeutic agents in the treatment of Her2/neu overexpressing breast cancer. Numerous patients, however, do not adequately respond to anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)/Her2 receptor targeting. Receptor-and, in turn, growth-stimulating effects, which potentially hamper antiproliferative cell treatment, have barely been investigated. BT474 and SK-BR-3 breast cancer cell lines were treated with Tras… Show more

“…By contrast, in HL60 human myeloid leukemia cells ERN was more effective (IC 50 D 1.9 mM) than SFN (IC 50 D 5.1 mM) (37). In case of lapatinib, our results confirmed previous data showing that BT-474 cells are more sensitive to this drug than SKBR-3 cells (38,39).…”

“…In contrast, SK-BR-3-bearing mice were mostly trastuzumab insensitive which is in line with the response characteristic of SK-BR-3 cells in-vitro [28]. Apparently, the immune system enhanced the trastuzumab treatment efficiency in BT474 HTM.…”

“…The ever-growing body of evidence supporting the favorable impact of Her4 expression in breast cancer suggests the need to reexamine the commonly accepted idea that (over-)expression of (receptor) tyrosine kinases is necessarily associated with oncogenic activity. Only further extensive functional in-vitro and in-vivo analyses focusing on the importance of Her4 in the context of differential Her receptor co-expression will facilitate the consideration of this important receptor in individually optimized therapy based on a modular approach [35]. …”
