The Single-Molecule Mechanics of the Latent TGF-β1 Complex
Abstract
Summary null Background null TGF-β1 controls many pathophysiological processes including tissue homeostasis, fibrosis, and cancer progression. Together with its latency-associated peptide (LAP), TGF-β1 binds to the latent TGF-β1-binding protein-1 (LTBP-1), which is part of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Transmission of cell force via integrins is one major mechanism to activate latent TGF-β1 from ECM stores. Latent TGF-β1 mechanical activation...
