Hepatocyte nuclear factor-3β limits cellular diversity in the developing respiratory epithelium and alters lung morphogenesis in vivo
1 Nov 1997
Abstract excerpt
Hepatocyte nuclear factor-3beta (HNF-3beta), a nuclear protein of the winged helix family of transcription factors, is known to play a critical role in the formation of the embryonic node, notochord, and foregut endoderm. HNF-3beta influences the expression of a number of target genes in the respiratory epithelium, activating transcription of thyroid transcription factor-1, surfactant protein-B and clara cell...
