EGF — RHOG
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Samson et al., Mol Biol Cell 2010
:
Here, we describe that stimulation of epithelial cells with
epidermal growth factor leads to strong and rapid activation of
RhoG ... By using nucleotide-free RhoG pull-down assays and small interfering RNA mediated knockdown studies, we further show that guanine-nucleotide exchange factors ( GEFs ) of the Vav family mediate
EGF induced rapid activation of
RhoG
Kwiatkowska et al., Molecular cancer 2012
(Brain Neoplasms...) :
We also observed that
RhoG is
activated by both HGF and
EGF , two factors that are thought to be clinically relevant drivers of glioblastoma invasive behavior, and that RhoG is overexpressed in human glioblastoma tumors versus non-neoplastic brain ... In search of a mechanism for the contribution of RhoG to the malignant behavior of glioblastoma cells, we found that depletion of
RhoG strongly
inhibits activation of the Rac1 GTPase by both HGF and
EGF
