The TGFBI gene transcript in this human corneal epithelial cell line is upregulated by growth factor TGF-beta( 1), but is not affected by growth factor EGF. Furthermore, cell density appears to be an important regulatory mechanism in controlling the level of TGFBI gene expression in corneal epithelial cells.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
