Background Information
Nodal is a member of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily that plays critical roles during embryogenesis. Nodal also regulates cell proliferation, apoptosis, and invasion in cancer cells. However, it appears to exert both tumor-suppressing and tumor-promoting effects, depending on the cell type (PMID: 22645523). Nodal signals through ALK7 receptor to inhibit proliferation and to induce apoptosis in ovarian cancer cell lines and breast cancer cell lines (PMID: 15531507, PMID: 21383881).
