title: c-erbB-4/HER4: friend or foe?
abstract: The c-erbB-4 receptor has ligand stimulated tyrosine kinase activity but reports differ as to whether it induces cell division or differentiation. There is also controversy regarding its role in breast cancer, with some reports associating overexpression with short survival and others with longer life.
