CTGF and SMADs, Maintenance of Scleroderma Phenotype Is Independent of SMAD Signaling [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2001
In normal adult fibroblasts, transforming growth factor-beta (TGFbeta) induces the expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). CTGF independently promotes fibroblast proliferation and matrix deposition, and in acute models of fibrosis promotes cell proliferation and collagen deposition acting synergistically with TGFbeta.

Contextual Regulation of TGF-β Signaling in Liver Cancer

open access: yesCells, 2019
Primary liver cancer is one of the leading causes for cancer-related death worldwide. Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) is a pleiotropic cytokine that signals through membrane receptors and intracellular Smad proteins, which enter the nucleus ...

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

Deep learning for de-convolution of Smad2 versus Smad3 binding sites

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2022
Background The transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF β-1) cytokine exerts both pro-tumor and anti-tumor effects in carcinogenesis. An increasing body of literature suggests that TGF β-1 signaling outcome is partially dependent on the regulatory targets ...

The Smad Dependent TGF-β and BMP Signaling Pathway in Bone Remodeling and Therapies

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Bone remodeling is a continuous process that maintains the homeostasis of the skeletal system, and it depends on the homeostasis between bone-forming osteoblasts and bone-absorbing osteoclasts.

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

IL1B induced Smad 7 negatively regulates gastrin expression. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori elicited IL1B is one of the various modulators responsible for perturbation of acid secretion in gut. We have earlier reported that IL1B activated NFkB downregulates gastrin, a major modulator of acid secretion.
