Reduced expression of transforming growth factor-beta receptor type III in high stage neuroblastomas
1 Mar 2000
Abstract excerpt
Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) is a powerful inhibitor of cell proliferation and a potent inducer of differentiation. Resistance to TGF-beta action is a characteristic of many malignancies and has been attributed to alterations of TGF-beta receptors as well as disturbance of downstream transduction pathways. To analyse the TGF-beta response in neuroblastoma, the expression of TGF-beta1 and TGF-beta...
