## Abstract TGF‐β‐induced gene‐h3 (βig‐h3) is an adhesive molecule that interacts with integrins. Because TGF‐β plays an important role in diabetic complications and βig‐h3 serves as a cell substrate, we hypothesized that diabetic conditions might increase βig‐h3 synthesis in vascular smooth muscle
## Abstract Transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) is a multifunctional growth factor, affecting cell proliferation, apoptosis, and extracellular matrix homeostasis. It also plays critical roles in mammary gland development, one of which involves inhibition of the expression of milk proteins, such as
