TGFB1 decreases the amount of SDC4. 14 / 14
| 14

reach
"In addition, the results again indicated that siSmad3 with or without siSmad2 diminished the decrease in syndecan-4 core protein expression by TGF-beta 1 after a 24-h treatment."

reach
"These results suggest that the late downregulation of syndecan-4 expression by TGF-beta 1 is mediated by Smad2/3 at the mRNA level and by Smad3 at the protein level."

reach
"Recently, we found that TGF-beta 1 first upregulates and then downregulates the expression of syndecan-4, a transmembrane heparan sulfate proteoglycan, via the TGF-beta receptor ALK5 in the cells."

reach
"In this study, we observed that TGF-beta 1 first upregulates and then downregulates endothelial syndecan-4 expression."

reach
"Specifically, the downregulation of syndecan-4 expression by TGF-beta 1 is mediated by the interaction of Smad3 with Smad2 at the mRNA expression level, whereas only Smad3 is crucial at the core protein expression level."

reach
"The functional damage of vascular endothelial cells caused by the disturbed flow induces chronic TGF-beta 1 accumulation in the vascular wall, and the accumulated TGF-beta 1 suppresses the expression of syndecan-4 by activation of Smad2/3, which contributes to the progression of atherosclerosis [Tull et al., 2006; Nesbitt et al., 2009; Popovic et al., 2009]."

reach
"In other words, TGF-beta 1 induces endothelial biglycan synthesis; as a result, syndecan-4 expression is suppressed by enhanced TGF-beta 1 signaling."

reach
"Syndecan-4 mRNA expression was upregulated after 6h and downregulated after 24h by TGF-beta 1."

reach
"In contrast, SB203580 suppressed the early upregulation of syndecan-4 mRNA expression by TGF-beta 1, although the late downregulation was unaffected by the inhibitor."

reach
"The early upregulation and late downregulation of syndecan-4 mRNA expression by TGF-beta 1 were both not affected by siRNA mediated knockdown of Smad2."

reach
"On the other hand, siRNA mediated knockdown of Smad3 diminished the upregulation of syndecan-4 mRNA expression by TGF-beta 1, suggesting that Smad3 is a member of the signaling pathway that mediates the TGF-beta 1 -induced upregulation of syndecan-4 expression."

reach
"The late downregulation of syndecan-4 core protein expression by TGF-beta 1 was observed in cells treated with or without siRNA for Smad2, but this downregulation was reduced by siRNA for Smad3."

reach
"This result indicates that Smad3 is involved in the late downregulation of syndecan-4 core protein expression by TGF-beta 1."

reach
"These results indicate that the early upregulation of syndecan-4 mRNA expression by TGF-beta 1 is mediated by Smad3, whereas Smad2 or Smad3 alone is not involved in the late downregulation of syndecan-4 mRNA expression by TGF-beta 1; the late downregulation of syndecan-4 core protein expression by TGF-beta 1 is mediated by Smad3."
