Glioma cells with overexpression of CKS2 were constructed to confirmed the fact that CKS2 induced nucleocytoplasmic translocation of SMAD2/3 and activated TGFβ/SMAD pathway, then upregulated its downstream targets expression, while inhibition of TGFβ/SMAD (by TGFβ inhibitor LY2157299 or SMAD4 siRNA) could reverse the tumor‐promoting effects and malignant phenotype caused by CKS2 overexpression. The gene discussed is CKS2; the disease is neoplasm.
