Title The growth inhibitory effect of lapatinib, a dual inhibitor of EGFR and HER2 tyrosine kinase, in gastric cancer cell lines.
URL
Abstract Text HER2 overexpression is observed in 5-25% of gastric cancers. Lapatinib is a dual inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor and HER2 tyrosine kinase. We examined the antitumor effect of lapatinib in gastric cancer cell lines. Lapatinib induced selective and potent growth inhibition in two HER2-amplified gastric cancer cell lines (SNU-216 and NCI-N87). Lapatinib inhibited the phosphorylation of HER2, EGFR and downstream signaling proteins, resulting in G1 arrest in both cell lines with down-regulation of cMyc and induction of p27kip1. Lapatinib also induced apoptosis in NCI-N87 which has high HER2 amplification ratio. Lapatinib combined with 5-fluorouracil, cisplatin, oxaliplatin or paclitaxel showed an additive or synergistic effect. These results provide a rationale for the future clinical trials of lapatinib combined with cytotoxic drugs in the treatment of HER2-positive gastric cancer.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
