BACKGROUND Proteotoxic stress and transforming growth factor (TGFβ)- induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) are two main contributors of intraocular fibrotic disorders, including proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). However, how these two factors communicate with each other is not well-characterized. OBJECTIVE The aim was to investigate ...
BACKGROUND & AIMS Transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) acts either as a tumor suppressor or as an oncogene, depending on the cellular context and time of activation. TGFβ activates the canonical SMAD pathway through its interaction with the serine/threonine kinase type I and II heterotetrameric receptors. Previous studies investigating TGFβ-mediated signaling in the pancreas relied either on ...
BACKGROUND Angiotensin II (Ang II) and transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) are closely involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications. We aimed to determine whether an aberrant thrombospondin 1 (TSP1)-mediated TGFβ1/Smads signaling pathway specifically affects vascular fibrosis in diabetic rats and whether valsartan, an Ang II subtype 1 receptor blocker, has an anti-fibrotic effect. M...
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) exhibit anti-neoplastic (chemoprevention) activity for sporadic cancers and the hereditary cancer predisposition Lynch syndrome (LS/HNPCC). However, the mechanism of NSAID tumor suppression has remained enigmatic. Defects in the core mismatch repair (MMR) genes MSH2 and MLH1 are the principal drivers of LS/HNPCC. Previous work has demonstrated that...
PURPOSE To determine whether inhibition of TGFβ signaling prior to irradiation sensitizes human and murine cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN TGFβ-mediated growth and Smad phosphorylation of MCF7, Hs578T, MDA-MB-231, and T47D human breast cancer cell lines were examined and correlated with clonogenic survival following graded radiation doses with and without pretreatment w...
Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) associated with systemic sclerosis (SSc) results in significant morbidity and mortality. We previously reported that insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-II) is overexpressed lung tissues fibroblasts from SSc patients, IGF-II fosters by upregulating collagen type I, fibronectin, TGFβ. now show augments mRNA levels of profibrotic signaling molecules TGFβ2 (p ≤ 0.01) TGFβ3 0...
RATIONALE MicroRNA miR145 has been implicated in vascular smooth muscle cell differentiation, but its mechanisms of action and downstream targets have not been fully defined. OBJECTIVE Here, we sought to explore and define the mechanisms of miR145 function in smooth muscle cells. METHODS AND RESULTS Using a combination of cell culture assays and in vivo mouse models to modulate miR145, we c...
Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) regulates many physiological processes and requires control mechanisms to safeguard proper and timely action. We have previously described how negative regulation of TGFβ signaling is controlled by the serine/threonine kinase salt-inducible kinase 1 (SIK1). SIK1 forms complexes with the TGFβ type I receptor and with the inhibitory Smad7 and down-regulates the...
The TGFβ receptors signal through phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of SMAD2/3. SMAD7, a transcriptional target of TGFβ signals, negatively regulates the TGFβ pathway by recruiting E3 ubiquitin ligases and targeting TGFβ receptors for ubiquitin-mediated degradation. In this report, we identify a deubiquitylating enzyme USP11 as an interactor of SMAD7. USP11 enhances TGFβ signalling and ...
