Research Abstract

Sprouty family members are induced by FGF rather than by EGF or TGF-β, and their function is not only to regulate signaling downstream of tyrosine kinase-type receptors but also to inhibit Smad1/5/8 phosphorylation in the TGF-β signaling pathway, which is closely related to epithelial mesenchymal transition. Phosphorylation in the TGF-β signaling pathway, which is closely related to epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and may negatively regulate epithelial-mesenchymal transition. In addition, the cysteine-rich region of the Spry domain is involved in the binding of Caveolin, which acts only in the MAP kinase pathway in Raft, suggesting that the inhibition of TGF-β signaling is Caveolin-independent.
