TGF-β switches from tumor suppressor to prometastatic factor in a model of breast cancer progression
1 Oct 2003
Abstract excerpt
The TGF-beta signaling network plays a complex role in carcinogenesis because it has the potential to act as either a tumor suppressor or a pro-oncogenic pathway. Currently, it is not known whether TGF-beta can switch from tumor suppressor to pro-oncogenic factor during the course of carcinogenic progression in a single cell lineage with a defined initiating oncogenic event or whether the specific nature of the...
