We have reported that Cellular Retinol Binding Protein-1 (CRBP-1) is expressed de novo during skin wound healing by a proportion of fibroblastic cells which then differentiate into myofibroblasts and express alpha-smooth muscle actin. In fibroblasts cultured from different tissues we have shown that

Transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b1) is a potent negative regulator of cell growth that transduces signals through interactions with type I and II receptors. Abnormal expression and mutational alterations of these receptors have been observed in several human malignancies. In this study, we investi
