Attenuated ALK5 receptor expression in human pancreatic cancer: Correlation with resistance to growth inhibition

Abstract: Transforming growth factor-6 (TGF-p) receptors constitute a family of transmembrane proteins that bind TGF-P ligands. In this study we assessed the growth responsiveness to TGF-P I in

“…These low levels of endogenous Smad7 may explain the lack of correlation between Smad7 mRNA levels in these cells and responsiveness to TGFb1 (Baldwin et al, 1996). These observations suggest that resistance to TGF-b-mediated growth inhibition in these cells was not Smad7-dependent.…”

“…Second, decreased expression of either TbRI or TbRII has been implicated as a mechanism for TGF-b resistance in human tumors. TbRI underexpression occurs in prostate, colon, and pancreatic cancer cell lines, and in chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells (Baldwin et al, 1996;DeCoteau et al, 1997;Kim et al, 1996;Wang et al, 1996), whereas TbRII levels are low in gastric cancer cells and in TGF-bresistant T-cell lymphoma cells (Kadin et al, 1994;Park et al, 1994). Third, inactivating mutations in components of the TGF-b signaling pathway, such as Smad2 or Smad4 lead to a TGF-b-resistant state Eppert et al, 1996;Riggins et al, 1996;.…”
