Neuron-specific enolase in hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis: a potential indicator for macrophage activation?

abstract：:Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) is a pleiotropic regulator of all stages of hematopoieis. Depending on the differentiation stage of the target cell, the local environment, and the concentration of TGF-beta, TGF-beta can be proproliferative or antiproliferative, proapoptotic or antiapoptotic, and/or prodiffe...
