“…The role of TGF-b in epithelial malignant tumors is complex and is not completely known. Available data support a dual role; it acts as a tumor suppressor in early phase of tumorigenesis while causing tumor progression at later stage (7,(29)(30)(31)(32). Furthermore, lack of transforming growth factor beta receptor II (TGFR II) is associated with decreased p-Smad2 and increases tumor aggressiveness resulting from the loss of inhibitory effect of TGF-b (33)(34)(35)(36).…”

“…Langdahl also found the relevance between C-1348-T, C-1348-T polymorphism, and the bone mineral density of male lumbar and the fracture of centrum [19]. Tang discovered that individuals carrying RS1800471 C allele had three times of morbidity of esophageal cancer than individuals carrying GG genotype, and it was related to the TNM periodization of esophageal cancer [20]. What is more, the TGF-β1 509C>T homozygous TT genotype was found to be associated with an increased risk of having an aggressive form of prostate cancer, but the 29 T>C C variant genotypes were not [21].…”
