| Abstract | Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) overexpression has been associated frequently with squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) and SCC cell lines. In most cases the level of EGFR on the tumours from which the cell lines were derived has not been determined, nor have EGFR levels been determined for xenograft tumours from the cell lines. In this study we determined EGFR expression on a new series of head and neck SCC (SCCHN)-derived cell lines, which were obtained from tumours representing a spectrum of malignant progression, and two cell strains derived from erythroplakia premalignant lesions. The level of EGFR on cell lines was determined by [125I]EGF competitive binding assays. EGFR levels on some of the original tumours and xenografts of the cell lines were determined on cryosections by a competitive binding assay based on [125I]EGFR1, an EGFR-specific monoclonal antibody. EGFR expression on the tumour cryosections was compared with expression on cryosections of skin and buccal mucosa. Eight of the ten tumour cell lines had elevated EGFR. Two of the tumour-derived cell lines and the two erythroplakia-derived cell strains expressed EGFR at levels similar to that detected on normal keratinocytes in tissue culture. Only two of the tumours overexpressed EGFR when compared with normal tissue. The other tumours had levels similar to that detected on the basal layers of skin or buccal mucosa. The xenografts expressed EGFR, as did the original tumours, even though they were derived from cell lines that displayed significant overexpression of EGFR. This study suggests that most tumours have a latent potential to overexpress EGFR which is realised in tissue culture. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
