STAT3 Partly Inhibits Cell Proliferation via Direct Negative Regulation of FST Gene Expression
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Follistatin (FST) is a secretory glycoprotein and belongs to the TGF-β superfamily. Previously, we found that two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of sheep FST gene were significantly associated with wool quality traits in Chinese Merino sheep ...
