Construction of a Novel Constitutively Active Chimeric EGFR to Identify New Targets for Therapy

Tumor cells and tumor-associated endothelial cells express activated epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) due to production of EGF-related ligands in the tumor microenvironment. To investigate the effect of perpetual EGFR activation on endothelial cells, we developed a novel method to generate c...
