Activation of key profibrotic mechanisms in transgenic fibroblasts expressing kinase-deficient type II Transforming growth factor-{beta} receptor (T{beta}RII{delta}k).

We have generated transgenic mice expressing a kinase-deficient type II transforming growth factor-beta (TGFbeta) receptor selectively on fibroblasts (TbetaRIIDeltak-fib). These mice develop dermal and pulmonary fibrosis. In the present study we explore activation of TGFbeta signaling pathways in th...
