Helicobacter pylori infection induces DNA double-strand breaks through the ACVR1/IRF3/POLD1 signaling axis to drive gastric tumorigenesis [PDF]
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection plays a pivotal role in gastric carcinogenesis through inflammation-related mechanisms. Activin A receptor type I (ACVR1), known for encoding the type I receptor for bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), has been ...

Inhibition of ACVR1 in Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts Suppresses Colorectal Cancer Cell Growth. [PDF]
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common malignancy worldwide and a leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Stromal signatures in CRC are correlated with poor prognosis and resistance to chemotherapy, affecting tumor progression and relapse ...

TGF-β uses a novel mode of receptor activation to phosphorylate SMAD1/5 and induce epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition [PDF]
The best characterized signaling pathway downstream of transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) is through SMAD2 and SMAD3. However, TGF-β also induces phosphorylation of SMAD1 and SMAD5, but the mechanism of this phosphorylation and its functional relevance

BMP‐ACVR1 Axis is Critical for Efficacy of PRC2 Inhibitors in B‐Cell Lymphoma
EZH2 is the catalytic subunit of the histone methyltransferase Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), and its somatic activating mutations drive lymphoma, particularly the germinal center B‐cell type.

Activin A functions in BMP signaling in two ways: it either engages ACVR1B to activate Smad2/3 signaling or binds ACVR1 to form a non-signaling complex (NSC).
