Rapid induction and clearance of TGFβ1 is an early response to wounding in the mouse embryo
1 Jan 1993
Abstract excerpt
The TGF beta family of growth factors has been implicated as playing a significant role in many aspects of embryonic morphogenesis, and also as a mediator of adult tissue repair processes. Unlike the situation in the adult, tissue repair in the embryo does not result in scarring, and it has been suggested that this might be due, in part, to reduced levels of growth factors, particularly TGF beta, at the wound...
