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
Metallothionein (MT) is a small cysteine-rich protein thought to be mainly involved in metal regulation and detoxification. The implication of MT in cell growth and differentiation has also been suggested. This latter hypothesis was further investigated in adult rat hepatocytes induced to proliferat
