A new sporadic case of early-onset Loeys-Dietz syndrome due to the recurrent mutation p.R528C in the TGFBR2 gene substantiates interindividual clinical variability.
Interestingly, the mutant TGF-beta RII E526Q can completely inhibit TGF-beta-induction of nuclear translocation of Smad4 protein in o</span>esophageal carcinoma cells.
Of the four breast cancer subtypes, the associations of rs12493607 (3p24.1/TGFBR2) with HER-2 overexpression in breast cancer (P = 1.09 × 10(-3)) and rs11075995 (16q12.2/FTO) with basal-like breast cancer (P = 1.64 × 10(-4)) were statistically significant.

The G alleles of the TGFBR2 rs764522 and rs1036095 SNPs were associated with AAA under a recessive model (OR=1.69, 95% CI 1.28-2.25, P<0.001 and OR=1.59, 95% CI 1.23-2.07, P<0.001) when a fixed effects model was used.
Comparison of the phenotypes of our patient and these 5 individuals with c.1582C>T showed that only the hallmark triad of the syndrome - consisting of hypertelorism, aortic root dilatation/aneurysm, and cleft palate or bifid uvula - was present in all 6 cases.

By contrast, R460C, which has been found in familial TAAD but not in MFS2 or LDS, showed a less-severe dominant-negative effect and retained residual Smad phosphorylation and transcriptional activity.
Neonatal assessment showed craniofacial and cardiovascular findings suggestive of LDS whose diagnosis was confirmed by the detection of a novel mutation (HGVN: NM_003242.5 (TGFBR2): c.1381T > C (p.(Cys461Arg))) in the TGFBR2 gene.
To describe the clinical findings and natural history in 22 carriers of an R460H mutation in the transforming growth factor beta receptor 2 gene (TGFbetaR2) from a five-generation kindred ascertained by familial aortic dissection.
One variant, TGFBR2 rs1078985, had highly consistent and significant associations with breas</span>t cancer risk among participants in both study stages, as well as promising results from in silico analysis.

Carriers of the A allele of rs11466512, delA allele of c.383delA or delT allele of c.1256-15del1T polymorphisms had a trend toward or significantly reduced z-scores (median [interquartile range (IQR)], 2.2 [1.13-4.77]; 2.1 [1.72-3.48]; 2.5 [1.85-3.86]) with respect to homozygous patients with wild-type MFS (median [IQR], 4.20 [2.39-7.25]; 3.9 [2.19-7.00]; 3.9 [2.14-6.93]).
Our results demonstrated that hsa-miR-1193 may be involved in sCRC tumourigenesis at least in part by suppression of TGFBR2, and the A allele of rs11466537 disturbed the regulation of hsa-miR-1193 on TGFBR2.
Analyses performed by gender revealed different variants associated with BAV in men (EGFR rs533525993 and TEX26 rs12857479) and women (NOTCH1 rs61751489, TGFBR2 rs1155705, and NKX2-5 rs2277923).
This population-based case-control study was to evaluate the contribution of functional polymorphisms in TGFB1 C-509T, Leu10Pro and TGFBR2 G-875A to the risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
Of the four breast cancer subtypes, the associations of rs12493607 (3p24.1/TGFBR2) with HER-2 overexpression in breast cancer (P = 1.09 × 10(-3)) and rs11075995 (16q12.2/FTO) with basal-like breast cancer (P = 1.64 × 10(-4)) were statistically significant.
Robust case-pseudocontrol (CPC) conditional logistic regression analysis showed associations between CL and SNPs at CTGF (SNP rs6918698; CC genotype; OR 1.67; 95%CI 1.10-2.54; P=0.016), TGFBR2 (rs1962859; OR 1.50; 95%CI 1.12-1.99; P=0.005), SMAD2 (rs1792658; OR 1.57; 95%CI 1.04-2.38; P=0.03), SMAD7 (rs4464148; AA genotype; OR 2.80; 95%CI 1.00-7.87; P=0.05) and FLII (rs2071242; OR 1.60; 95%CI 1.14-2.24; P=0.005), and between ML and SNPs at SMAD3 (rs1465841; OR 2.15; 95%CI 1.13-4.07; P=0.018) and SMAD7 (rs2337107; TT genotype; OR 3.70; 95%CI 1.27-10.7; P=0.016).
To investigate whether TGFBR2 polymorphisms are associated with ischemic stroke (IS) and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of TGFBR2 gene (rs764522, -1444C/G; rs2228048, Asn389Asn) were selected and genotyped by direct sequencing in 247 stroke patients (120 IS and 127 ICH) and 655 control subjects (260 for IS and 395 for ICH).
Significant associations (P < .05) were observed for 8 polymorphisms (rs1800871, rs1800872, and rs1554286 of IL-10; rs3171425 and rs7281762 of IL-10RB; rs2228048 and rs744751 of TGFBR2; and rs1800797 of IL-6) with leprosy.
Carriers of the A allele of the rs2276767 polymorphism showed a trend toward increased z-score (median [IQR], 4.9 [2.14-7.16]) with respect to patients with wild-type MFS (median [IQR], 3.3 [1.75-5.45]).
