Expansion of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) from cord blood is highly desired for treatment and transplantation of adult patients for hematologic diseases. For efficient proliferation of HSCs, CD34(+) cells from cord blood were co-cultured with microencapsulated murine stromal cells (HESS-5) or imm

## Abstract Transforming growth factor‐beta (TGF‐β) mediates several and sometime opposite effects in epithelial cells, inducing growth inhibition, and apoptosis but also promoting an epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) process, which enhances cell migration and invasion. TGF‐β plays relevan
