Endoglin moves and shapes endothelial cells
Vascular malformations result from improper blood vessel responses to molecular and mechanical signals. Two studies now show that endothelial cell migration and cell shape changes are perturbed in mutants lacking the TGFβ/BMP co-receptor endoglin ...

Expression of Endoglin in Primary Endometrial Cancer
<i>Objective:</i> Alterations in the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling cascade are engaged in the development of human neoplasms through the deregulation of proliferation, differentiation and migration.

Hepatic endothelial Alk1 signaling protects from development of vascular malformations while maintaining organ‐specific endothelial differentiation and angiocrine portmanteau of the names Wingless and Int‐1 signaling. Abstract Background and Aims In hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), severe liver vascular malformations are associated with ...

Endoglin in head and neck neoplasms
Tumors of the head and neck region form a heterogeneous group of pathologies, including various benign lesions and malignant neoplasms. Endoglin, also known as CD105, is an accessory receptor for transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), that regulates angiogenesis, both under physiological and pathological conditions.

Endoglin in liver fibrosis [PDF]
Liver fibrosis occurs in most types of chronic liver diseases and is characterized by excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins, leading to disruption of tissue function and eventually organ failure. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β represents an important pro-fibrogenic factor and aberrant TGF-β action has been implicated in many ...

CD105 (Endoglin), Apoptosis, and Stroke [PDF]
To the Editor: The recent paper by Zhu et al1 in this journal provides an insight into the possible mechanism of hypoxia-induced upregulation of CD105 (endoglin). The following 3 points are relevant to their paper. Lately there has been a major debate regarding the relevance of cell culture/animal models for human stroke in general and for ...

MicroRNA-208a increases myocardial fibrosis via endoglin in volume overloading heart. [PDF]
MicroRNA-208a (mir-208a) is essential for cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis. Endoglin, a co-receptor of transforming growth factor-β is also essential for cardiac fibrosis.

Negative correlation between endoglin levels and coronary atherosclerosis
Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common cardiovascular disease, and abnormal blood lipid metabolism is an important risk factor. Transforming growth factor-ß (TGF-ß) and its receptor (TGF-ßR) can inhibit the release of inflammatory factors ...
