  2. bdetermined via time-lapse microscopy
  3. cdetermined via Matrigel invasion assay
  4. d- = not detectable; +/++/+++ = detectable at low/intermediate/high levels as previously published by Kneissl et al. [7]
  5. e + = EGF-induced increases and significant reversions by EGF/cetuximab treatment at a significance level of at least ≤0.050
