EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor), also known as HER-1, ErbB1, or ErbB, is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase that binds a subset of the EGF family ligands including EGF, Amphiregulin, TGF-alpha, Betacellulin, Epiregulin, HB-EGF, and Epigen. Ligand binding induces EGFR homodimerization as well as heterdimerization with ErbB2, resulting in kinase activation, tyrosine phosphorylation and cell signaling. EGFR can also be recruited to form heterodimers with the ligand-activated ErbB3 or ErbB4. EGFR signaling regulates multiple biological functions including cell proliferation, differentiation, motility, and apoptosis. EGFR is overexpressed in a wide variety of tumors and is the target of several anti-cancer drugs. Soluble receptors consisting of the extracellular ligand binding domain are generated by alternate splicing in human and mouse.

Recovery for Human EGFR Quantikine ELISA Kit
The recovery of EGF R spiked to levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.
| Sample Type | Average % Recovery | Range % |
|---|---|---|
| Cell Culture Media (n=4) | 98 | 86-106 |
| EDTA Plasma (n=4) | 99 | 91-108 |
| Heparin Plasma (n=4) | 101 | 92-111 |
| Serum (n=4) | 101 | 89-117 |
Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with high concentrations of EGF R were serially diluted with the appropriate Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.
