Abstract excerpt
Cross-talk between Smad and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways has been described recently, and evidence for Smad cooperation with AP-1 is emerging. Here we report that epidermal growth factor (EGF) potentializes transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta)-induced Smad3 transactivation in rat hepatocytes, an effect abrogated by TAM-67, a dominant negative mutant of AP-1. Antisense transfection experiments...
