The Rafts of the Medusa: cholesterol targeting in cancer therapy.

abstract：:Loss of the tumor suppressive effect of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) has been commonly found at later stages in carcinogenic progression. Although the genes encoding TGF-beta receptors and Smads have been found genetically altered in certain human cancers, no mutation in Smad3 has been observed. Therefor...
