Retinoic acid (RA) induces the activation of latent transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b) in bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) via enhancement of cellular plasminogen activator (PA)/plasmin levels. The resultant TGF-b suppresses the excessive fibrinolytic activity by decreasing PA expression an
Transforming growth factor b1 (TGF-b1) belongs to a family of multifunctional modulatory proteins involved in cell growth, differentiation, development, and wound healing. Although the biological activities of TGF-b1 have been extensively studied, its regulation remains obscure. Here we report the e
## Abstract ## Background Previous studies have suggested a role for transforming growth factor (TGF) β and its receptor in thoracic aortic aneurysm, but their role in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is unknown. This study examined the possible association between TGF-β receptor 1 and 2 (TGFBR-1 a
