Abstract excerpt
Although a putative role for transforming growth factor-β (TGFB) signalling in the pathogenesis of human endometrial cancer has long been proposed, the precise function of TGFB signalling in the development and progression of endometrial cancer remains elusive. Depletion of phosphatase and tensin homologue (PTEN) in the mouse uterus causes endometrial cancer. To identify the potential role of TGFB signalling in...
