TGFβ3: Transforming Growth Factor-beta-3

Quantity

Description

BACKGROUND The Transforming Growth Factors (TGFs) are multifunctional peptides that regulate growth and differentiation in a variety of cells. Recent data suggest that individual TGF-? isoforms (TGF?1, -?2 and ?3) have overlapping, yet distinct biological actions and target cell specificities, both in developing and adult tissues. TGF-?3 is a new isoform that is presumed to play an important role in wound repair and scarring. TGF-? 3 is also thought to be involved in osteoblast proliferation, chemotaxis, and collagen synthesis. Recombinant human/mouse TGF?3 is a non-glycosylated, disulfide-linked homodimer. Each monomer is 112 amino acids, having a total molecular mass of 25.5 kDa. Products are for research use only. They are not intended for human, animal, or diagnostic applications.
