Abstract excerpt
Transforming growth factor (TGF) beta1 is a growth factor which has multiple functions including the promotion of matrix deposition during wound healing and scar formation. Gene polymorphisms within or close to the 5' region of TGFbeta1 have been identified; three in the upstream region, one in t...
