title: [Mechanisms of epidermal growth factor activity].
abstract: Epidermal growth factor is a Mr 6045 polypeptide which binds to its own cell surface receptor and stimulates its intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity. Activation of this signal transducing system is believed to be involved in many physiological and pathophysiological processes. Some aspects of these processes are discussed in this review.
