While neoplasia with osseous metastasis is a potential cause of hypercalcemia, tumors may also secrete materials such as PTH-rp or other osteoclast-activating factors, cytokines, or other growth factors that modulate bone remodeling leading to calcium adsorption from bone.
Modulation of the expression of EGF and its receptor (EGF-R) in prostate cells by androgen [ 18 19 26 ] , and over-expression of EGF-R during the advanced stages of prostate cancer [ 34 ] , imply that EGF/EGF-R signaling events might be involved in neoplasia and perhaps progression of prostate cancer.
