Smad3 Interacts with JunB and Cbfa1/Runx2 for Transforming Growth Factor-β1-stimulated Collagenase-3 Expression in Human Breast Cancer Cells
1 Jun 2004
Abstract excerpt
We have previously shown that transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1, a crucial molecule in metastatic bone cancer, stimulates collagenase-3 expression in the human breast cancer cell line, MDA-MB231. To understand the molecular mechanisms responsible for TGF-beta1 response on collagenase-3 promoter activity, a functional analysis of the promoter region of the collagenase-3 gene was carried out, and we identified...
