Endoglin Expression Is Regulated by Transcriptional Cooperation between the Hypoxia and Transforming Growth Factor-β Pathways
1 Nov 2002
Abstract excerpt
Endoglin is a transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) co-receptor expressed mainly on endothelial cells and involved in cardiovascular development, angiogenesis, and vascular remodeling. This is illustrated by the fact that mutations in the endoglin gene give rise to hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia type 1, a dominant vascular disease with clinical manifestations that originate by a mechanism of...
