Publication number: 20190153117Abstract: Disclosed are epitopes of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the use thereof. The epitopes are highly preserved, and located in the domain closely related to binding with an epidermal growth factor (EGF). Therefore, vaccine compositions comprising the epitopes or compositions comprising antibodies to the epitopes may efficiently block a signal transduction caused by binding of EGF and EGRF, and thus can be highly valuably used in treating various diseases such as cancer. An antibody bound to the epitopes of the present invention may efficiently inhibit binding of various EGFR ligands such as not only EGF but also TGF-?, AR, BTC, EPR and HB-EGF, with EGFR, and therefore can be used in treating various diseases resulting from an activation of EGFR caused by binding not only with EGF but also with other EGFR ligands.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 28, 2019Publication date: May 23, 2019Applicants: GREEN CROSS CORPORATION, MOGAM BIOTECHNOLOGY RESEARCH INSTITUTEInventors: Se-Ho Kim, Kwang-Won Hong, Ki-Hwan Chang, Min-Soo Kim, Mi-Jung Lee, Jong-Hwa Won, Min-Kyu Hur, Hyun-Soo Cho, Ji-Ho Yoo
