Defective repression of c- <i>myc</i> in breast cancer cells: A loss at the core of the transforming growth factor β growth arrest program
30 Jan 2001
Abstract excerpt
Loss of growth inhibitory responses to the cytokine transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) in cancer cells may result from mutational inactivation of TGF-beta receptors or their signal transducers, the Smad transcription factors. In breast cancer, however, loss of TGF-beta growth inhibition often occurs without a loss of these signaling components. A genome-wide analysis of rapid TGF-beta gene responses in...
