Retinoblastoma cells are resistant to transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b) activity due to the absence of TGF-b binding. To further elucidate the mechanism of TGF-b resistance, we studied the expression of the TGF-b receptors and SMADs by using the Y79 and WERI-Rb-1 retinoblastoma cell lines. Bindin
In mammals, transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) is found in 3 highly homologous isoforms that exert their effects via heteromeric complexes of type-I and type-II receptors (TbetaR-I and TbetaR-II). TGF-beta regulates the growth and metabolism of various cell types, including keratinocytes. We
Transforming growth factor b1 (TGFb1) inhibits the growth of normal rat epithelial thyroid cells (FRTL-5 strain) by counteracting thyrotropin (TSH)-stimulated DNA synthesis and by slowing the cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Here, we have studied two clones of FRTL-5 thyroid cell line transf
