Dendritic cells: sentinels against pathogens.

abstract：:Transforming growth factor-betas (TGF-betas) are multifunctional cytokines that exist in 3 isoforms in mammals. The TGF-betas are ubiquitously expressed and all isoforms are secreted as biologically inactive precursors called latent TGF-beta (L-TGF-beta). L-TGF-betas are generally not effective molecules because they ...
