What Does TGF Stand For?

TGF stands for Transforming Growth Factor

Transforming Growth Factor (TGF) refers to a group of proteins that play a crucial role in regulating cellular processes, including growth, differentiation, and immune responses. These factors are essential in various biological functions, such as embryogenesis, tissue repair, and the modulation of inflammation. TGF family members, including TGF-?, are implicated in numerous pathophysiological conditions, including cancer, fibrosis, and autoimmune diseases, making them significant targets for therapeutic intervention.
