Words similar to mhb-egf
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:
Fibulin-1 may serve to anchor the mHB-EGF to its fibers as it migrates through the extracellular matrix.
It may be that LTBP-3 provides a physical link between soluble mHB-EGF and TGF-β.
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 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.
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.
