Recombinant Human Transforming Growth Factor Beta 1 (TGF-β1)
Price range: $200.00 through $6,800.00
Transforming Growth Factor Beta 1 (TGF-β1) is a multifunctional cytokine that plays a central role in regulating cell growth, differentiation, immune response, and extracellular matrix production. It signals primarily through type I and type II TGF-β receptors, leading to activation of SMAD-dependent and SMAD-independent pathways, which control diverse cellular processes including epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), fibrosis, and immune modulation.
