Anti-Smad3 antibody,Abcam,AB28379

Target data SMAD3 is a receptor-regulated SMAD that functions as an intracellular signal transducer and transcriptional modulator, activated by TGF-beta and activin type 1 receptor kinases. It binds to the TRE element in promoters of numerous genes regulated by TGF-beta, and upon forming a complex with SMAD4, activates transcription. Additionally, SMAD3 can form a complex with SMAD4, JUN, and FOS at the AP-1/SMAD site to regulate TGF-beta-mediated transcription. SMAD3 may inhibit wound healing by modulating the growth and migration of primary keratinocytes and altering TGF-beta-mediated monocyte chemotaxis, with this effect being potentially hormone-sensitive. Furthermore, SMAD3 is involved in regulating chondrogenesis and osteogenesis and may inhibit early bone fracture healing. It also positively regulates PDPK1 kinase activity by promoting its dissociation from the 14-3-3 protein YWHAQ, which negatively regulates it.
