Previous studies have established that colon carcinoma cells secrete several polypeptide growth factors, including TGF-dEGF and TGF-B, suggesting that these and related molecules function in an autocrindparacrine fashion to modulate tumor-cell growth. To investigate this possibility, we have studied
## Abstract Follistatin‐related gene (FLRG) is a member of the follistatin family of proteins and interacts with transforming growth factor (TGF) superfamily proteins like follistatin. To understand the expression level of FLRG in brain tissue, we examined whether primary neurons and glial cells fr
Growth plate chondrocytes make TGF-1 in latent form (LTGF-1) and store it in the extracellular matrix via LTGF-1 binding protein (LTBP1). 1,25-(OH) 2 D 3 (1,25) regulates matrix protein production in growth zone (GC) chondrocyte cultures, whereas 24,25-(OH) 2 D 3 (24,25) does so in resting zone (
The mucosa of the functioning pelvic ileal pouch undergoes loss of villous height and an increase in crypt cell proliferation as an adaptive response to its new luminal environment. These changes can occur in the absence of inflammation and could be mediated by growth factors such as transforming gr
