"The binding of EGF to its receptor represented one of the first events identified as being capable of inducing robust activation of STAT3. xref Indeed, the activation of STAT3 by EGF receptor (EGFR) requires Src to phosphorylate the catalytic domain of EGFR at Tyr845, as well as at two EGFR autophosphorylation sites located at Tyr1068 and Tyr1086, both of which serve as docking sites for STAT3. xref , xref Moreover, EGF simulation of carcinoma cells that express aberrantly high levels of EGFR is sufficient to induce EMT phenotypes. xref Along these lines, Lo and colleagues xref demonstrated that the ability of EGF to induce EMT programs was contingent upon the activation of STAT3 in human tumors that harbored genomic amplifications of EGFR."

"Moreover, significantly decreased expression of EGFR, phosphorylated Stat3 and c‐Myc, and significantly increased expression of p27 have been found in ECSCs. xref Mechanistically, EGFR activates Stat3, and phosphorylated Stat3 enters the nucleus to promote c‐Myc expression, which inhibits p27. xref p27 is a cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor that restricts cell cycle progression by arresting cells in G1 phase. xref Tong et al revealed that low p27 expression may alter the cell cycle to make esophageal cancer cells more resistant to radiation. xref This process suggests that the EGFR/Stat3/c‐Myc/p27 pathway may contribute to the quiescence of ECSCs. xref , xref "

"In studies conducted during the early phase of T. gondii infection, we showed that invasion by T. gondii causes epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signalling in various cell types from humans and rodents (epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and microglia), and two signalling pathways downstream of EGFR signalling enable the parasite to activate Akt and STAT3, negative regulators of autophagy that protect the parasite from initial targeting by autophagy (Muniz‐Feliciano et al., 2013; Portillo et al., 2017)."
