Ο ρόλος του SMAD σηματοδοτικού μονοπατιού στις σπειραματονεφρίτιδες του ανθρώπου
… στη διαδικασία αυτή φαίνεται να διαδραματίζει το Smad σηματοδοτικό μονοπάτι που διαμεσολαβεί τα σήματα του TGF-β στα νεφρικά κύτταρα. Ο ρόλος του TGF-β στη νεφρική βλάβη είναι πλέον καλά τεκμηριωμένος. Αντίθετα ελάχιστα είναι γνωστά για την έκφραση και τη λειτουργία του Smad σηματοδοτικού …

TGF-beta,Smad signaling in hepatic stellate cells and during liver fibrogenesis
… pathway in this process by overexpression of Smad7, an intracellular antagonist of TGF-beta signaling. Moreover, a new TGF-beta response gene was identified, which participates in the control of profibrogenic transdifferentiation to myofibroblast-like cells. Ligation of the common bile duct …

Effects of nerve growth factor on TGF-Beta,Smad signal transduction in PC12 cells
… Upon activation, the receptors phosphorylate Smad proteins which serve as downstream mediators that enter the nucleus and finally trigger transcriptional responses of specific genes. During the past years, it became evident that signaling cascades do not proceed in a linear fashion but rather …

Effects of Docosahexaenoic Acid on TGF-ß and SMAD Proteins in COLO205 and WiDr Cells
… as well as related transcription factors called SMADs, are among the proteins known to be modified by docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) treatment in T-cells. Unpublished data has indicated that these proteins may be modified by DHA in colon cancer cells. In the current project, a thorough investigation …

Smad Proteins and theTgf-Beta Signaling Pathway During In Vitro Progression of Hpv16-Immortalized Human Keratinocytes' and 'Microarray Gene Expression Profiling of Exfoliated Cervical Cells'
… in HKc/DR, we have previously shown using a Smad-driven luciferase reporter construct that TGF-β signaling is only reduced about 50% in HKc/DR as compared to HKc/HPV16. In the first section of the present thesis we studied whether alterations in the expression of the Smad components of the …

Ueber die Funktion von Zinkfinger Proteinen bei der Induktion des Mesoderms in Xenopus laevis
… Familie reguliert. In der Zielzelle ver mitteln Smad Proteine die Signalweitergabe von der Zellmembran in den Zellkern. Hier kooperieren di e Smad-Proteine mit gewebsspezifischen Transkriptionsfaktoren, um Zielgene zu regulieren. In der Ta ufliege Drosophila melanogaster kooperiert das homologe …

Endometrial Decidualization by TGF-β and PPAR-γ
… that obtained from stromal cells. In addition, pSmad2/3 translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus was greatly enhanced in the secretory endometrium. Prolactin was used for endometrial decidualization marker. PPAR-γ is a member of streroid receptor superfamily of nuclear receptor. PPAR-γ is …

Characterisation of the molecular mechanisms of dopaminergic axonal growth and their impairment in Parkinson's disease
… growth factor effects by regulating the BMP-Smad signalling pathway. Therefore, for GDF5 to be a suitable candidate therapy for PD, it is important that the cellular response to GDF5 is unaffected by the disease process. In Chapter 2, we demonstrate that GDF5 signalling is normal in cellular …

Involvement of TGF-beta in skin photoaging
… of ROS vary with time. We showed that both Smad and non-Smad pathways, e.g. MAPK and PKC pathways, are required for TE mRNA up-regulation by TGF-[beta].

Body Size Regulation via BMP Signaling in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>
… sequencing (ChIP-Seq). Furthermore, I have shown Smad binding to v conserved Smad Binding Elements (SBE) in a common promoter region for col-141 and col-142 and demonstrated that SBE in this region are required for gene expression. Utilizing electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA), I showed …

Role of Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase and Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor gamma on Transforming Growth Factor-β1-Induced Human Endometrial Stromal Cell Decidualization
… and prolactin. This effect was mediated by Smad and ERK activation. Addition of rosiglitazone, a PPAR gamma agonist, prevented TGF-β1 effect on endometrial cell proliferation. Furthermore, rosiglitazone inhibited TGF-β1 induced activation of ERK, consequently reducing PGE2 and prolactin …

Hypoxia-mediated human pulmonary arterial fibroblast proliferation is dependent on p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase activity.
… pathways. We wished to establish whether Smad proteins (involved in the downstream signalling cascade from BMPR) might play a role in human pulmonary and systemic arterial fibroblast proliferation to acute hypoxia. Following approval from the local Ethics Committee, PAFB were harvested …
