Functional Switching of TGF-β1 Signaling in Liver Cancer via Epigenetic Modulation of a Single CpG Site in TTP Promoter
30 Dec 2009
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Acquisition of resistance to the antiproliferative effect of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1 is crucial for the malignant progression of cancers. In this study, we sought to determine whether deregulated expression of tristetrapolin (TTP), a negative posttranscriptional regulator of c-Myc, confers resistance to the antiproliferative effects of TGF-beta1 on liver cancer cells. METHODS:...
