Transforming Growth Factor-β Signaling in Fibrotic Diseases and Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling is essential in embryo development and maintaining normal homeostasis. Extensive evidence shows that TGF-β activation acts on several cell types, including epithelial cells, fibroblasts, and immune cells, to form a pro-fibrotic environment, ultimately l...
