Abstract excerpt
TGF-beta1 has been known to suppress the growth of gastric cancer cells. Interestingly, TGF-beta1 treatment increased the proliferation of human gastric cancer cell line, SNU-216 cells, while it reduced the proliferation of other tumor cells including SNU-620 cells. TGF-beta1-mediated down-regulation of c-Myc and induction of p21CIP1 were observed in SNU-620, but there was no change in SNU-216 in response to...
