Gene Expression and the Physiological Role of Transforming Growth Factor-α in the Mouse Pituitary [PDF]
Transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha), a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family, is produced within the mouse anterior pituitaries. However, the cell types of TGF-alpha-expressing cells and the physiological roles of TGF-a within mouse
