Description
Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) is a polypeptide belonging to the transforming growth factor beta superfamily of cytokines. This secreted protein plays a role in numerous cellular functions, such as regulating cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. TGF-β1 plays a role in bone remodeling and fracture healing, making it relevant in skeletal research using rabbits. It is involved in the study of osteoarthritis. TGF-β1 is involved in lung fibrosis and airway remodeling, making it relevant in respiratory research using rabbits. Previous research has indicated that TGF-β1 and TGF-β2 are important in rabbit skin development
