Comparison of protective effect of two types of aerobic and intermittent training on breast cancer by TGFβ protein and Smad-3 gene and MMP2 in female mice
Introduction: The aim of this study was to compare the protective effects of two types of aerobic and intermittent training on breast cancer as a result of TGFβ protein, Smad-3, and MMP2 gene in female mice. Methods: In the experimental study, a total of 24 female BALB/c mice after Tumorigenesis by MC4-L2 cell line in the three groups; Control, Aerobic, and Intermittent training groups,...
متن کاملThe Role of Wnt Signaling Pathway on the Expression of TGFβ 1 and TGFβ 2 in Cultured Rat Cortical Astrocytes
Introduction: Astrocytes, the most abundant glia in the central nervous system, modulate neuronal survival and function. Astrocytic functions are mediated by synthesis and secretion of wide ranges of polypeptides through mechanism (s) poorly understood. Among these, TGFβs are synthesized and released by the astrocytes. In this study, the involvement of Wnt signaling pathway on the synthesi...
متن کاملEffects of fibromodulin protein expression on NFkB and TGFβ signaling pathways in liver cancer cells
Introduction: The incidence rate of liver cancer is continuously increasing. Currently, gene therapy is applied to improve various medical issues such as cancer treatment approaches. Correspondingly, fibromodulin involves in many biological and physiological processes through interaction with growth factors and signaling pathway receptors. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of...
متن کاملA decisive function of transforming growth factor-β/Smad signaling in tissue morphogenesis and differentiation of human HaCaT keratinocytes
The mechanism by which transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) regulates differentiation in human epidermal keratinocytes is still poorly understood. To assess the role of Smad signaling, we engineered human HaCaT keratinocytes either expressing small interfering RNA against Smads2, 3, and 4 or overexpressing Smad7 and verified impaired Smad signaling as decreased Smad phosphorylation, aberrant nuc...
متن کاملExcess SMAD signaling contributes to heart and muscle dysfunction in muscular dystrophy.
Disruption of the dystrophin complex causes muscle injury, dysfunction, cell death and fibrosis. Excess transforming growth factor (TGF) β signaling has been described in human muscular dystrophy and animal models, where it is thought to relate to the progressive fibrosis that characterizes dystrophic muscle. We now found that canonical TGFβ signaling acutely increases when dystrophic muscle is...
