Because Sma and Mad-related protein (SMAD) 2 and SMAD3 transduce activin signals in vitro, we attempted to define the role of SMAD3 in gonadal tumorigenesis and the wasting syndrome by generating inhibin alpha and Smad3 double mutant mice.

Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells variously expressed several markers, including CD56, inhibin-alpha, alpha-smooth muscle actin (alpha-SMA), and progesterone receptor (PR), which have been identified in ovarian sex cord-stromal neoplasms.
