Defective repression of c- myc in breast cancer cells: A loss at the core of the transforming growth factor β growth arrest program
Open accessAbstract
Loss of growth inhibitory responses to the cytokine transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) in cancer cells may result from mutational inactivation of TGF-β receptors or their signal transducers, the Smad transcription factors. In breast cancer, however, loss of TGF-β growth inhibition often occurs without a loss of these signaling components. A genome-wide analysis of rapid TGF-β gene responses in MCF-10A human mammary epithelial cells and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells shows that c- myc repression, a response that is key to the TGF-β program of cell cycle arrest, is selectively lost in the cancer cell line. Transformation of MCF-10A cells with c-Ha- ras and c -erbB2 oncogenes also led to a selective loss of c- myc repression and cell cycle arrest response. TGF-β stimulation of epithelial cells rapidly induces the formation of a Smad complex that specifically recognizes a TGF-β inhibitory element in the c- myc promoter. Formation of this complex is deficient in the oncogenically transformed breast cells. These results suggest that a Smad complex that specifically mediates c- myc repression is a target of oncogenic signals in breast cancer.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
