Abstract excerpt
While transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) and its related mammalian isoforms TGF-beta 2 and TGF-beta 3 are coexpressed in developing tooth organs, the specific biological role of each isoform is unknown. To delineate the role of TGF-beta 1 in odontogenesis, we have studied tissues from...
