Transforming growth factor‐β regulates the splicing pattern of fibronectin messenger RNA precursor
12 Feb 1990
Abstract excerpt
Fibronectin (FN) polymorphism is caused by alternative splicing patterns in at least three regions (ED-A, ED-B and IIICS) of the primary transcript of a single gene. Using monoclonal antibodies, we previously demonstrated that transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) preferentially increases the accumulation of the FN isoforms containing the ED-A sequence in cultured normal human fibroblasts [Balza et al.,...
