Abstract
This review explores the complex relationship between epigenetic mechanisms and Transforming Growth Factor-beta (TGF-β) signalling pathways in the field of cancer research. The study provides an overview of the latest advancements in understanding the crucial functions of epigenetic alterations, such as DNA methylation, histone modifications, and chromatin remodeling, in significantly impacting the TGF-β signalling pathway. The dynamic epigenetic modifications are essential in determining the behaviour of cancer cells, impacting the interactions with the tumor microenvironment, and affecting the overall process of carcinogenesis. Significant attention is given to Breast cancer, Lung cancer, Liver cancer, Prostate cancer, and Pancreatic cancer. Research has revealed intricate regulatory networks in these cancers, involving long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs), and histone post-translational modifications. These networks are closely connected to TGF-β signalling. Both findings highlight the significant interaction between epigenetic regulation and TGF-β signalling in cancer. They provide valuable insights that can guide the development of new treatment approaches to target both pathways and prevent cancer growth and metastasis.
