Chapter 14, Problem 18P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The Alternative strategy for targeting EGF signaling pathway for antitumor drug development is mentioned.
Concept introduction:
The EGFR stands for epidermal growth factor receptor. This is one of the most important signaling pathways. Its role is to check growth rate and proliferation in cells. This is known to be involved in development of cancer.
