## Communicated by Maria Rita Passos-Bueno Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is clinically characterized by a sustained elevation in mean pulmonary artery pressure leading to significant morbidity and mortality. The disorder is typically sporadic, and in such cases the term idiopathic PAH (IPAH

Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) signaling is initiated following heterodimerization of the type II TGF-beta receptor (TbetaRII) with the type I TGF-beta receptor (TbetaRI). Both receptors are required for TGF-beta responsiveness. In the present study, we characterized the actions of TGF-b
Due to the availability of the endothelial cell marker QH1, experiments using quail embryos have traditionally been used to trace the endothelial cell lineage and describe the morphologic events of vessel formation. A comparable marker in the chicken has not been available. Here we report that antib
Ampullary carcinomas are relatively rare cancers of which very little is known in terms of carcinogenetic mechanisms at the molecular level. Genetic instability caused by mutations of mismatch-repair genes has been demonstrated to be responsible for hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancers and a
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. Analysis of the early molecular abnormalities that play an oncogenic role in the progression of pulmonary neoplasia may lead to the identification of useful markers for early detection and prognosis. In normal squamous epithelium, transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) regu
