TGF-βI Regulates Cell Migration through Pluripotent Transcription Factor OCT4 in Endometriosis.

Transforming growth factor (TGF-β)/TGF-β receptor signal is known to promote cell migration. Up-regulation of TGF-β in serum/peritoneal fluid and increased levels of pluripotent transcription factor OCT4 in endometriotic tissues are frequently observed in patients with endometriosis.
