LNCR is a common malignancy affecting tissues of the lung. The most common form of lung cancer is non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that can be divided into 3 major histologic subtypes: squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, and large cell lung cancer. NSCLC is often diagnosed at an advanced stage and has a poor prognosis. Function EGFR_HUMAN Receptor tyrosine kinase binding ligands of the EGF family and activating several signaling cascades to convert extracellular cues into appropriate cellular responses. Known ligands include EGF, TGFA/TGF-alpha, amphiregulin, epigen/EPGN, BTC/betacellulin, epiregulin/EREG and HBEGF/heparin-binding EGF. Ligand binding triggers receptor homo- and/or heterodimerization and autophosphorylation on key cytoplasmic residues. The phosphorylated receptor recruits adapter proteins like GRB2 which in turn activates complex downstream signaling cascades. Activates at least 4 major downstream signaling cascades including the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK, PI3 kinase-AKT, PLCgamma-PKC and STATs modules. May also activate the NF-kappa-B signaling cascade. Also directly phosphorylates other proteins like RGS16, activating its GTPase activity and probably coupling the EGF receptor signaling to the G protein-coupled receptor signaling. Also phosphorylates MUC1 and increases its interaction with SRC and CTNNB1/beta-catenin. Isoform 2 may act as an antagonist of EGF action. Publication Abstract from PubMed Acquired drug resistance in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant non-small-cell lung cancer is a persistent challenge in cancer therapy. Previous studies of trisubstituted imidazole inhibitors led to the serendipitous discovery of inhibitors that target the drug resistant EGFR(L858R/T790M/C797S) mutant with nanomolar potencies in a reversible binding mechanism. To dissect the molecular basis for their activity, we determined the binding modes of several trisubstituted imidazole inhibitors in complex with the EGFR kinase domain with X-ray crystallography. These structures reveal that the imidazole core acts as an H-bond acceptor for the catalytic lysine (K745) in the "alphaC-helix out" inactive state. Selective N-methylation of the H-bond accepting nitrogen ablates inhibitor potency, confirming the role of the K745 H-bond in potent, noncovalent inhibition of the C797S variant. Insights from these studies offer new strategies for developing next generation inhibitors targeting EGFR in non-small-cell lung cancer.
