Transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b) is normally secreted in a latent form, and plasmin-mediated proteolytic cleavage of latency-associated peptide (LAP), a component of latent TGF-b complex that makes the complex inactive, activates latent TGF-b. In the present study, we investigated the possible i
Transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta) is secreted in a latent form consisting of mature TGF-beta noncovalently associated with its amino-terminal propeptide, which is called latency associated peptide (LAP). Biological activity depends upon the release of TGF-beta from the latent complex follo
