Chemical regulators of epithelial plasticity reveal a nuclear receptor pathway controlling myofibroblast differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Plasticity in epithelial tissues relates to processes of embryonic development, tissue fibrosis and cancer progression. Pharmacological modulation of epithelial transitions during disease progression may thus be clinically useful.

Regulation of fibronectin by thyroid hormone receptors [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Endocrinology, 2004
Thyroid hormones regulate growth, development, differentiation, and metabolic processes by interacting with and activating thyroid hormone receptors and associated pathways. We investigated the triiodothyronine (T3) modulation of gene expression, in human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines, via a PCR-based cDNA subtraction method.
