Example sentences for: mhb-egf
How can you use “mhb-egf” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
As explained above, mHB-EGF has been reported to be involved as a structural protein in such tissue developmental processes as wound healing and it is feasible that the direct physical association of mHB-EGF with fibulin-1 may be useful in the tissue remodeling of a wound site and in scar formation.
It may be that LTBP-3 provides a physical link between soluble mHB-EGF and TGF-β.
It was also surprising that the extracellular portion of any of the EGF receptor proteins was also not represented among the proteins found to interact with the extracellular domain of proHB-EGF, since the mature protein proteolytically cleaved from proHB-EGF (mHB-EGF) as well as the membrane bound form are known to interact with the EGF receptor.
Fibulin-1 may serve to anchor the mHB-EGF to its fibers as it migrates through the extracellular matrix.
Possible functions for the apparent interaction of mHB-EGF with LTBP-3 include the targeting of the TGF-β within its protective large latent complex to its appropriate TGF-β cell-surface receptor, or the targeting of the TGF-β large latent complex to the EGF receptor via binding of mHB-EGF to the appropriate EGF receptor.
