BACKGROUND: Retinoic acid (RA) is a vitamin A derivative that participates in patterning and regulation of inner ear development. Either excess RA or RA deficiency during a critical stage of inner ear development can produce teratogenic effects. Previous studies have shown that in utero exposure of

This review focuses on the possible role of transforming growth factor-~3 isoforms 1-3 (TGF~3) in prostate cancer. TGF~ 1 appears to inhibit the cellular proliferation of normal prostate cells. Surprisingly, TGF[31 is overexpressed in prostate cancer. To help explain this apparent paradox, it has be
Alterations in the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) pathway are implicated in the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer. We hypothesize that alterations in the TGF-beta pathway contribute to differential sensitivity of mice to the colon carcinogen azoxymethane (AOM). A/J (sensitive) and AKR/J
## Abstract Skin fibrotic disorders such as systemic sclerosis (SSc) are characterized by an excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) and are understood to develop under the influence of fibrogenic growth factors. To better understand the detailed mechanisms of persistent fibrosis in SS
