SMAD Proteins in TGF-β Signalling Pathway in Cancer: Regulatory Mechanisms and Clinical Applications [PDF]
Suppressor of mother against decapentaplegic (SMAD) family proteins are central to one of the most versatile cytokine signalling pathways in metazoan biology, the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) pathway.

The long non-coding RNA LINC00707 interacts with Smad proteins to regulate TGFβ signaling and cancer cell invasion [PDF]
Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate cellular processes by interacting with RNAs or proteins. Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) signaling via Smad proteins regulates gene networks that control diverse biological processes, including ...

SMAD proteins: Mediators of diverse outcomes during infection
Understanding the relationship between host and pathogen is key to combatting disease. SMAD transcription factors, which transmit TGF-β superfamily signalling, mediate an array of outcomes during embryogenesis, inflammation, cancer, and immunity ...

miRNAs in Signal Transduction of SMAD Proteins in Breast Cancer. [PDF]
The aim of this study was to identify miRNAs that could potentially influence the activity of SMAD proteins involved in TGFβ signal transduction in five types of breast cancer in Polish women. Patients with five breast cancer subtypes were included in the study: luminal A (n = 130), luminal B HER2− (n = 100), luminal B HER2+ (n = 96), non-luminal HER2+

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

Smad Proteins Physically Interact with Calmodulin [PDF]
The Smad family of intracellular proteins mediates signals generated by activin and other transforming growth factor beta-related proteins via specific heteromeric complexes of transmembrane receptor serine kinases (1, 2). xSmad2 has been implicated as an activin signal mediator that may participate in transcriptional regulation (3, 4).

CHIP Mediates Degradation of Smad Proteins and Potentially Regulates Smad-Induced Transcription [PDF]
Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta)/bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family ligands interact with specific membrane receptor complexes that have serine/threonine kinase activities. The receptor phosphorylation and activation induced by the ligands leads to phosphorylation of the Smad proteins, which translocate to the nucleus, controlling gene ...
