Context-dependent TGFβ family signalling in cell fate regulation
The transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) family are a large group of evolutionarily conserved cytokines whose signalling modulates cell fate...

αv Integrin-Dependent TGFβ Activation in Cancer: A Brief Update
It is increasingly clear that TGFβ is probably the most important molecule promoting the immunosuppressive state of the tumour microenvironment... -
Control of TGFβ signalling by ubiquitination independent function of E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIP12
Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) pathway is a master regulator of cell proliferation, differentiation, and death. Deregulation of TGFβ signalling...

Comprehensive molecular interaction map of TGFβ induced epithelial to mesenchymal transition in breast cancer
Breast cancer is one of the prevailing cancers globally, with a high mortality rate. Metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is an advanced stage of cancer,...

Cell-free ascites from ovarian cancer patients induces Warburg metabolism and cell proliferation through TGFβ-ERK signaling
Ascites plays a key role in supporting the metastatic potential of ovarian cancer cells. Shear stress and carry-over of cancer cells by ascites flow...

The long non-coding RNA LINC00707 interacts with Smad proteins to regulate TGFβ signaling and cancer cell invasion
BackgroundLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate cellular processes by interacting with RNAs or proteins. Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ)...

TGFβ signaling links early life endocrine-disrupting chemicals exposure to suppression of nucleotide excision repair in rat myometrial stem cells
Environmental exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) is linked to the development of uterine fibroids (UFs) in women. UFs, non-cancerous...

Short telomeres impede germ cell specification by upregulating MAPK and TGFβ signaling
Functional telomeres protect chromosome ends and play important roles in stem cell maintenance and differentiation. Short telomeres negatively impact...

PHF13 epigenetically activates TGFβ driven epithelial to mesenchymal transition
Epigenetic alteration is a pivotal factor in tumor metastasis. PHD finger protein 13 (PHF13) is a recently identified epigenetic reader of H3K4me2/3...

Modeling Cellular Signaling Variability Based on Single-Cell Data: The TGFβ-SMAD Signaling Pathway
Nongenetic heterogeneity is key to cellular decisions, as even genetically identical cells respond in very different ways to the same external... -
A versatile Halo- and SNAP-tagged BMP/TGFβ receptor library for quantification of cell surface ligand binding
TGFβs, BMPs and Activins regulate numerous developmental and homeostatic processes and signal through hetero-tetrameric receptor complexes composed...
