Journal ArticleDOI

Altered expression of transforming growth factor‐β1 in cervical neoplasia as an early biomarker in carcinogenesis of the uterine cervix

TL;DR: Loss of responsiveness to TGF‐β1 or loss of TGF-β1 itself may be important in the progression of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) to invasive cervical carcinoma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Transforming Growth Factor-β (Isoforms 1–3) on Amyloid-β Deposition, Inflammation, and Cell Targeting in Organotypic Hippocampal Slice Cultures

TL;DR: Important functional differences are demonstrated among the TGF-β isoforms in their ability to alter the cellular distribution and degradation of Aβ, which may be relevant to the pathology of Alzheimer’s disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Smad3 loss confers resistance to the development of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid-induced colorectal fibrosis.

TL;DR: The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential role of Smad3 in the pathogenesis of colonic fibrosis induced by trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) in Smad 3 null mice.
Journal Article

Heterozygous Mice for the Transforming Growth Factor-β Type II Receptor Gene Have Increased Susceptibility to Hepatocellular Carcinogenesis

TL;DR: It is indicated that the reduced expression of TbetaR-II in mice increases susceptibility to tumorigenesis in the liver and the treatment of these mice with the chemical carcinogen, diethylnitrosamine, results in a significantly enhanced tumorigenisation in the Liver.
