Background

Ereg, or epiregulin, a member of the EGF family, binds to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and ErbB4, and it stimulates EGFR-related downstream pathways. Previous studies have shown that exposure to various chemical carcinogens induces the EREG expression that is relevant to lung tumorigenesis. The exposure of human bronchial epithelial cells to cigarette smoke extract upregulates EREG, which in turn promotes cell proliferation and protects against cigarette smoke-induced cytotoxicity.
