Signaling by members of the TGF-beta family in vascular morphogenesis and disease

Trends in Cell Biology
Evangelia PardaliPeter ten Dijke

Abstract

Members of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) family play pivotal roles in development and disease. These cytokines elicit their pleiotropic effects on cells, including endothelial and mural cells, through specific type I and type II serine/threonine kinase receptors and intracellular Smad transcription factors. This review highlights recent progress in our understanding of TGF-beta signaling in vascular development and angiogenesis and of how perturbed TGF-beta signaling might contribute to vascular pathologies, tumor angiogenesis and tumor progression. Recent research has provided exciting insights into the role of the TGF-beta type I receptor (ALK1) in tumor angiogenesis and the curative effects of thalidomide on vascular malformations in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). These advances provide opportunities for the development of new therapies for diseases with vascular abnormalities.

Arterial-venous development may play a crucial role in cardiovascular diseases. Here is the latest research.

Apoptosis in Cancer

Apoptosis is an important mechanism in cancer. By evading apoptosis, tumors can continue to grow without regulation and metastasize systemically. Many therapies are evaluating the use of pro-apoptotic activation to eliminate cancer growth. Here is the latest research on apoptosis in cancer.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis

Cell Signaling by Tyrosine Kinases

Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are the high-affinity cell surface receptors for many polypeptide growth factors, cytokines, and hormones. RTKs have been shown not only to be key regulators of normal cellular processes but also to have a critical role in the development and progression of many types of cancer.
