abstract：:Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is a potent inhibitor of the growth of normal mammary epithelial cells, and has a pleiotropic, context-dependent, concentration-dependent action. We found attenuation of TGF-β signalling in mammary adenoma carcinoma cells. Phosphorylation at the linker site of Smad2 occurred in a c...
