These factors promote cell proliferation in some tissue types or conditions and induce cell differentiation in others. Features the latest information on the TGF-beta family and its receptors. Describes correlations between TGF-beta and certain cancers, including glioblastomas. Also contains reports of preliminary investigations of clinical applications for TGF-beta in many diseases, including leukemia and its use to accelerate wound hea 410 0$aCiba Foundation symposium ;$v157. 606 $aTransforming growth factors-beta$xTherapeutic use$vCongresses 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aTransforming growth factors-beta$xTherapeutic use 676 $a574.88 676 $a615.7 701 $aBock$b Gregory$0322650 701 $aMarsh$b Joan$091633 712 12$aSymposium on Clinical Applications of TGF-[beta]$f(1990 :$eCiba Foundation) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910144744503321 996 $aClinical applications of TGF-$92816993 997 $aUNINA
