Noncanonical TGFβ Pathway Relieves the Blockade of IL1β/TGFβ-Mediated Crosstalk between Tumor and Stroma: TGFBR1 and TAK1 Inhibition in Colorectal Cancer.
Furthermore, the expression of SAFB in CRC tissues was negatively correlated with the expression of TAK1- and NF-κB-related genes.<b>Conclusions:</b> Our results show that <i>SAFB</i> regulated the activity of NF-κB signaling in CRC by targeting <i>TAK1</i> This novel mechanism provides a comprehensive understanding of both SAFB and the NF-κB signaling pathway in the progression of CRC and indicates that the SAFB-TAK1-NF-κB axis is a potential target for early therapeutic intervention in CRC progression.<i></i>.
