Carcinoma cell lines are frequently refractory to transforming growth factor-beta (TGF beta)-mediated cell cycle arrest. Whether and how TGF beta signaling is disrupted in the majority of human tumors, however, remains unclear. To investigate whether TGF beta signaling might be disrupted by inactiva
To elucidate the role of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) and the TGF-beta type II receptor (TGF-beta RII) as tumor-suppressor genes in lung carcinogenesis, we mated C57BL/6 mice heterozygous (HT) for deletion of the TGF-beta1 gene with A/J mice to produce AJBL6 TGF-beta1 HT progeny and
