Inhibitory Effect of 13-cis-Retinoic Acid on Urinary Bladder Carcinogenesis Induced in C57BL/6 Mice by N-Butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine

TL;DR: It is indicated that 13-cis-retinoic acid reduced not only the severity of highly invasive urinary bladder carcinomas but also the incidence of such cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transforming growth factors (TGFs): Properties and possible mechanisms of action

TL;DR: The term "autocrine secretion" has been proposed for this type of situation where a cell secretes a hormone-like substance for which it has external cell membrane receptors and may provide a partial explanation for some aspects of tumor cell progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

A synthetic triterpenoid selectively inhibits the induction of matrix metalloproteinases 1 and 13 by inflammatory cytokines

TL;DR: CDDO may have therapeutic potential for the inhibition of joint degradation in osteoarthritis and is demonstrated to be a novel inhibitor of M MP-1 and MMP-13 gene expression mediated by inflammatory cytokines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthetic triterpenoids prolong survival in a transgenic mouse model of pancreatic cancer.

TL;DR: It is suggested that oleanane triterpenoids and rexinoids have the potential to prevent pancreatic cancer.
