Antibody blockade of the Cripto CFC domain suppresses tumor cell growth in vivo.
Cripto, a cell surface-associated protein belonging to the EGF-CFC family of growth factor-like molecules, is overexpressed in many human solid tumors, including 70-80% of breast and colon tumors,… Expand

Cripto-1 Activates Nodal- and ALK4-Dependent and -Independent Signaling Pathways in Mammary Epithelial Cells
ABSTRACT Cripto-1 (CR-1), an epidermal growth factor-CFC (EGF-CFC) family member, has a demonstrated role in embryogenesis and mammary gland development and is overexpressed in several human tumors.… Expand

A Nodal- and ALK4-independent signaling pathway activated by Cripto-1 through Glypican-1 and c-Src.
Human Cripto-1 (CR-1) is a member of the epidermal growth factor-Cripto FRL1 Cryptic family that has been shown to function as a coreceptor with the type I Activin serine-threonine kinase receptor… Expand

Human Cripto-1 overexpression in the mouse mammary gland results in the development of hyperplasia and adenocarcinoma
Human Cripto-1 (CR-1) is overexpressed in approximately 80% of human breast, colon and lung carcinomas. Mouse Cr-1 upregulation is also observed in a number of transgenic (Tg) mouse mammary tumors.… Expand

Nodal and Cripto-1: Embryonic Pattern Formation Genes Involved in Mammary Gland Development and Tumorigenesis
Members of the TGFβ superfamily and EGF-CFC family, such as Nodal and Cripto, are important mediators of anterior-posterior and left-right axis specification during embryogenesis. In this paper, we… Expand
