The process of epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is fundamental for embryonic
morphogenesis. Cells undergoing it lose epithelial characteristics and integrity, acquire …

Transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) has long been identified with its intensive involvement
in early embryonic development and organogenesis, immune supervision, tissue repair, and …

TGFβ signalling has key roles in cancer progression: most carcinoma cells have inactivated
their epithelial antiproliferative response and benefit from increased TGFβ expression and …

Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a process during which cells lose their epithelial
characteristics, for instance apical–basal cell polarity and cell–cell contact, and gain …

Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling has a paradoxical role in cancer
progression, and it acts as a tumor suppressor in the early stages but a tumor promoter in …

Encoded in mammalian cells by 33 genes, the transforming growth factor–β (TGF-β) family
of secreted, homodimeric and heterodimeric proteins controls the differentiation of most, if …

T Regulatory cells (Tregs) can have both protective and pathological roles. They maintain
immune homeostasis and inhibit immune responses in various diseases, including cancer …

Transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) is a pleiotropic cytokine that plays a key role in both
physiologic and pathologic conditions, including cancer. Importantly, TGFβ can exhibit both …

Epithelial cells repress epithelial characteristics and elaborate mesenchymal characteristics
to migrate to other locations and acquire new properties. Epithelial plasticity responses are …

Probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are a particular group of gram-positive bacteria that are
usually involved in natural ferments and widely used in food manufacture industry. Most of …
