['Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) is a key target molecule in current treatment of several neoplastic diseases. Hence, in order to develop and improve current drugs targeting EGFR signalling, an accurate understanding of how this signalling pathway is regulated is required. It has recently been demonstrated that inhibition of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) induces a ligand-independent internalization of EGFR. Cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase consists of a regulatory dimer bound to two catalytic subunits.', 'We have investigated the effect on EGFR levels after ablating the two catalytic subunits, Calpha and Cbeta in two different models. The first model used targeted disruption of either Calpha or Cbeta in mice whereas the second model used Calpha and Cbeta RNA interference in HeLa cells. In both models we observed a significant reduction of EGFR expression at the protein but not mRNA level.'] Are epidermal growth factor receptor levels reduced in mice with targeted disruption of the protein kinase A catalytic subunit?
