Identification of a TGF-β/SMAD/lnc-UTGF positive feedback loop and its role in hepatoma metastasis
Abstract Aberrant activation of the TGF-β/SMAD signaling pathway is often observed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Whether lncRNA regulates the TGF-β/SMAD signaling remains largely unknown. Here, we identified an oncogenic lncRNA that was upregulated in HCC and was transcriptionally induced by TG...
