Activins, Myostatin and Related TGF-β Family Members as Novel Therapeutic Targets for Endocrine, Metabolic and Immune Disorders

1 Jun 2004

Abstract excerpt

Activins and inhibins were first identified by virtue of their ability to regulate follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) secretion from the anterior pituitary. Activins are also powerful regulators of gonadal functions. However, the physiological functions of activins are not restricted to reproductive tissues. Activins are involved in apoptosis of hepatocytes and B cells, fibrosis, inflammation and neurogenesis....
