Controlling angiogenesis by two unique TGF-β type I receptor signaling pathways.
1 Sept 2011
Abstract excerpt
Genetic studies in mice and humans have revealed a pivotal function for transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) in vascular development and maintenance of vascular homeostasis. Mice deficient for various TGF-β signaling components develop an embryonic lethality due to vascular defects. In patients, mutations in TGF-β receptors have been linked to vascular dysplasia like Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT)...
