Gene expression profiling reveals novel TGFbeta targets in adult lung fibroblasts.
BACKGROUND: Transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta), a multifunctional cytokine, plays a crucial role in the accumulation of extracellular matrix components in lung fibrosis, where lung fibroblasts are considered to play a major role. Even though the effects of TGFbeta on the gene expression of s...
