Endoglin: An accessory component of the TGF‐β‐binding receptor‐complex with diagnostic, prognostic, and bioimmunotherapeutic potential in human malignancies
25 May 2001
Abstract excerpt
Endoglin (CD105) is a cell membrane glycoprotein over-expressed on highly proliferating endothelial cells in culture, and on endothelial cells of angiogenetic blood vessels within benign and malignant tissues. CD105 binds several factors of the Transforming Growth Factor (TGF)-beta superfamily, and its over-expression modulates cellular responses to TGF-beta1. The complex of experimental findings accumulated in...
