Mutations in transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) receptor type II (TGFBR2) cause Loeys-Dietz syndrome, characterized by craniofacial and cardiovascular abnormalities. Mice with a deletion of Tgfbr2 in cranial neural crest cells (Tgfbr2(fl/fl);Wnt1-Cre mice) develop cleft palate as the result of abnormal TGFβ signaling activation. However, little is known about metabolic processes downstream ...
Transforming growth factor–B (TGF-B) isoforms are growth factors that function physiologically to regulate development, cellular proliferation, and immune responses. The role of TGF-B signaling in mammary tumorigenesis is complex, as TGF-B has been reported to function as both a tumor suppressor and tumor promoter. To elucidate the role of TGF-B signaling in mammary gland development, tumorigen...
It is generally accepted that longer microsatellites mutate more frequently in defective DNA mismatch repair (MMR) than shorter microsatellites. Indeed, we have previously observed that the A10 microsatellite of transforming growth factor beta type II receptor (TGFBR2) frameshifts -1 bp at a faster rate than the A8 microsatellite of activin type II receptor (ACVR2), although both genes become f...
Genetic alterations in the TGFb signaling pathway in combination with oncogenic alterations lead to cancer development in the intestines. However, the mechanisms of TGFb signaling suppression in malignant progression of intestinal tumors have not yet been fully understood. We have examined Apc Tgfbr2 compound mutant mice that carry mutations in Apc and Tgfbr2 genes in the intestinal epithelial ...
Simultaneous generation of neural cells and that of the nutrient-supplying vasculature during brain development is called neurovascular coupling. We report on a transgenic mouse with impaired transforming growth factor β (TGFβ)-signalling in forebrain-derived neural cells using a Foxg1-cre knock-in to drive the conditional knock-out of the Tgfbr2. Although the expression of FOXG1 is assigned to...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Immunosuppression is one of the hallmarks of cancer; however, its molecular mechanism remains unknown. In the present study, we sought to investigate the expression and activation of yes-associated protein 1 (YAP-1) and its roles in T cells within hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS The expression and activation of YAP-1 were accessed by real-time PCR, immunohistochemistry...
Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and their derivatives are expected to be used in drug discovery, regenerative medicine and the study of human embryogenesis. Because hepatocyte differentiation from hESCs has the potential to recapitulate human liver development in vivo, we employed this differentiation method to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying human hepatocyte differentiation....
Background: Bone Marrow Transplantations (BMT) are limited by low CD34+ cell counts in umbilical cord blood (UCB) and these cells need to be expanded for success in such procedures. To achieve this goal, ex vivo expansion of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) by enhancing their self-renewal activity on demineralized bone matrix (DBM) scaffold coated with mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPCs) and unr...
Mutations in TGFBR2, a component of the transforming growth factor (TGF)-β signaling pathway, occur in high-frequency microsatellite instability (MSI-H) colorectal cancer (CRC). In mouse models, Tgfbr2 inactivation in the intestinal epithelium accelerates the development of malignant intestinal tumors in combination with disruption of the Wnt-β-catenin pathway. However, no studies have further ...
Age at natural menopause (ANM), a highly heritable phenotype, has been identified to be closely associated with major hormone-related diseases, including breast cancer and gynecological cancers. We previously identified an important role for the transforming growth factor, β receptor II (TGFBR2) gene polymorphisms in breast cancer susceptibility among Asian women. Considering the important role...
