Abstract:
Her-2( human epidermal growth fact or receptor 2) is a type of 185 kD across the membrane glycoprotein with tyrosine kinase activity,play an important function in the cell divisions across a cell membrane proliferation signal transduction,and finally affect biological activities of tumor cells from multiple ways,such as a tumor cell proliferation and adhesion,transfer and differentiation and other related gene regulation.Recent studies show that Her-2 overexpression rate of gastric cancer patients is about 12% ~ 35%,and Her-2 is a gastric cancer poor-prognostic factors,while Her-2 monoclonal antibody-Trastuzumab is expected to become a new standard gastric cancer treatment for the patients with Her-2 overexpressed.
