activins and Cancer of Endometrium

activins has been researched along with Cancer of Endometrium in 10 studies

Activins: Activins are produced in the pituitary, gonads, and other tissues. By acting locally, they stimulate pituitary FSH secretion and have diverse effects on cell differentiation and embryonic development. Activins are glycoproteins that are hetero- or homodimers of INHIBIN-BETA SUBUNITS.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"High-risk type II endometrial cancers account for ~30% of cases but ~75% of deaths due, in part, to their tendency to metastasize."1.43Activin B promotes endometrial cancer cell migration by down-regulating E-cadherin via SMAD-independent MEK-ERK1/2-SNAIL signaling. ( Cheng, JC; Klausen, C; Leung, PC; Xiong, S, 2016)
"The proliferations of the 3 endometrial cancer cells were completely unaffected by activin A, whereas it suppressed the cell proliferation of a human ovarian endometrioid adenocarcinoma cell line, OVK-18, in a dose-dependent manner."1.32Expression and function of activin receptors in human endometrial adenocarcinoma cells. ( Minami, S; Otani, T; Tanaka, T; Toujima, S; Umesaki, N; Yamoto, M, 2003)
"Human endometrial cancer cells express both activin receptor and TGF-beta receptor, and TGF-beta1 utilizes the same intracellular signaling molecules as activin A."1.32Activin A inhibits growth-inhibitory signals by TGF-beta1 in differentiated human endometrial adenocarcinoma cells. ( Tanaka, T; Toujima, S; Umesaki, N, 2004)
"controls)."1.30Expression and secretion of inhibin and activin in normal and neoplastic uterine tissues. High levels of serum activin A in women with endometrial and cervical carcinoma. ( Di Blasio, AM; Florio, P; Gadducci, A; Gallo, R; Genazzani, AR; Luisi, S; Petraglia, F; Vale, W; ViganĂ², P, 1998)
