## Abstract Transforming growth factor‐beta (TGFβ) is a secreted cytokine, which intricately controls a plethora of physiological and pathological processes during development and carcinogenesis. TGFβ exerts antiproliferative effects and functions as a tumor suppressor during early stages of tumori

Regeneration involves a number of cellular processes: revascularisation, invasion by haemopoietic cells, removal of necrotic tissue and finally reformation of the tissues. These processes have been extensively studied in vitro and are known to be affected by various growth factors. However, it has p

## Abstract VEGF and TGF‐β1 induce angiogenesis but have opposing effects on endothelial cells. VEGF protects endothelial cells from apoptosis; TGF‐β1 induces apoptosis. We have previously shown that VEGF/VEGF receptor‐2 (VEGFR2) signaling mediates TGF‐β1 induction of apoptosis. This finding raised
