## Abstract Though TGF‐β inhibition enhances antitumor immunity mediated by CD8^+^ T cells in several tumor models, it is not always sufficient for rejection of tumors. In this study, to maximize the antitumor effect of TGF‐β blockade, we tested the effect of anti‐TGF‐β combined with an irradiated
Transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta is critically involved in the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) that occurs during the process of liver damage, for example, by alcohol, hepatotoxic viruses, or aflatoxins. Overexpression of the TGF-beta antagonist Smad7 inhibits transdifferentiation a
