Description
Transforming growth factors (TGFs) beta-1 (MIM 190180), beta-2 (MIM 190220), beta-3 (MIM 190230), and others have both stimulatory and inhibitory effects on the growth of different cell types and play a role in the production and degradation of the extracellular matrix. TGF-beta molecules are secreted in the form of latent large molecular mass complexes that contain other proteins, such as latent TGF-beta-1 binding protein (LTBP1; MIM 150390). There is evidence that these binding proteins modulate TGF-beta bioavailability. See Oklu and Hesketh (2000) (PubMed 11104663) for a review of the LTBP gene family.(supplied by OMIM)
