## Abstract Transforming growth factorβΞ² (TGFβΞ²) and interleukinβ4 (ILβ4) have fibrogenic properties and induce extracellular matrix production in a variety of lung diseases. Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a matrix signaling molecule stimulated by TGFβΞ² that in part mediates Ξ±1(I) collag
## Abstract Fibroblast growth factorβ2 (FGF2) is a member of a prominent growth factor family that drives proliferation in a wide variety of cell types, including osteoblasts. The binding and signal transduction triggered by these mitogens is dependent on glycosaminoglycan (GAG) sugars, particularl
