Mutant p53 Attenuates the SMAD-Dependent Transforming Growth Factor β1 (TGF-β1) Signaling Pathway by Repressing the Expression of TGF-β Receptor Type II
17 Sept 2007
Abstract excerpt
Both transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) and p53 have been shown to control normal cell growth. Acquired mutations either in the TGF-beta signaling pathway or in the p53 protein were shown to induce malignant transformation. Recently, cross talk between wild-type p53 and the TGF-beta pathway was observed. The notion that mutant p53 interferes with the wild-type p53-induced pathway and acts by a...
