Multiple hormones and growth factors regulate mammary epithelial and breast cancer cell growth and differentiation. While prolactin (PRL) is a differentiation hormone, epidermal growth factor (EGF) is an important mitogen. Here we examined the PRL and EGF crosstalk mechanism in mammary epithelial cells. Our results indicate that PRL and EGF exhibit antagonistic properties that impacts mammary epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation. While EGF blocked PRL-induced cellular differentiation, PRL suppressed EGF-induced cell growth. EGF was shown to block PRL-induced cellular differentiation without inhibiting PRL proximal signaling cascade such as Jak2 and Stat5a tyrosine phosphorylation. We identified Grb2 as a novel substrate of t...
