Our study demonstrated the differential expression of TGFβ cascade members in salivary gland tumors such as SMAD2/SMAD4 and c-MYC as well as the participation of ITGB6, TGFB1, LTBP1, and FBN1, contributing to the understanding of the mechanisms involved in tumor progression.

MYC (V-myc avian myelocytomatosis viral oncogene homolog) • SMAD4 (SMAD family member 4) • ITGB6 (Integrin Subunit Beta 6) • LTBP1 (Latent-transforming growth factor beta-binding protein 1) • FBN1 (Fibrillin 1) • SMAD2 (SMAD Family Member 2)
Silencing ITGB6 inhibited the proliferation, migration, and fibrosis-like effects of activated PSCs and indirectly inhibited the metastasis and malignant process of pancreatic cancer by inhibiting the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway. Therefore, ITGB6 is a potential candidate target for pancreatic cancer prevention and treatment.
ITGB6 and Rac1 are indicators of poor prognosis and tumor progression in gastric cancer patients. The potential signaling pathways associated with both may provide useful targets for the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer.

RAC1 (Rac Family Small GTPase 1) • ITGB6 (Integrin Subunit Beta 6)
Furthermore, we found ITGB6 was responsible for the acidic microenvironment-mediated migration and invasion processes in NSCLC by performing rescue experiments with ITGB6 knockdown. Our findings indicated acidic microenvironment directly induced ETS1 to regulate the expression of ITGB6, and then the highly expressed ITGB6 further mediate EMT and activates the downstream focal adhesion pathways, eventually promotes the invasion and migration in NSCLC progression and metastasis.
The developed MYCsig demonstrates its potential in enhancing the management of patients with PAAD by facilitating risk assessment and predicting response to adjuvant chemotherapy. Additionally, our study identifies RHOF and ITGB6 as novel oncogenes linked to EMT and chemoresistance in PAAD.
In this study, high-dose cisplatin was used to induce the dormant LUAD cells...In all, we demonstrated that CAFs were activated by exosomes from dormant lung cancer cells and reconstruct ECM. ITGB6 may be a critical molecule for activating the TGF-β pathway and remodeling ECM.
