Fig. 1

a Aberrant growth of normal murine mammary gland cells transformed by overexpression of EGFR (NME cells) was normalized by the addition of the EGFR inhibitor AG1478 (1 µM). (Inset shows a typical small, acinar structure.) After 14 days of drug treatment, an AG1478-resistant (AGR) colony from these 3D cultures was isolated and characterized by differential gene expression analyses in comparison to the parental NME cells. b Human mammary epithelial cells transformed by overexpression of HER2 (HME2 cells) were cultured in the presence of lapatinib (1 µM) until lapatinib-resistant (LAPR) cells emerged. The LAPR cells were characterized by differential gene expression as compared to parental HME2 cells. c The differentially expressed genes in both ErbBi resistance models were compared. Genes similarly regulated by >2-fold upon acquisition of resistance to either AG1478 or lapatinib are listed.
