In human hepatocellular carcinoma cells treated with TGF-β1 induction, reduced expression of the GnTIII gene and its catalytic product bisected GlcNAc structure, led to the up-regulation of Smad3 and Erk1/2 phosphorylation, which ultimately led to the EMT process of hepatocellular carcinoma [34]. Here, TGFB1 is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
