Characteristics and possible function of endoglin, a TGF-beta binding protein
Abstract
Endoglin was recently described as a major TGF-beta binding protein on endothelial cells. In this review we summarize the experimental data on this molecule, discuss some of our own findings, and speculate on its function.
