Gdf11 regulates left‐right asymmetry development through TGF‐β signal
Gdf11 forms a heterodimer with Spaw, activating the activin receptor and phosphorylating Smad2/3. This process DFC proliferation, subsequently activates the expression of foxj1a and its target genes, promoting cilia formation. Abstract During the embryonic developmental stage in vertebrates, internal organs are arranged along the left–right axis ...
