Expression of the type III TGFbeta receptor during chick organogenesis

Anat Rec A Discov Mol Cell Evol Biol. 2003 May;272(1):383-7. doi: 10.1002/ar.a.10049.

Abstract

Transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) is a regulator of embryonic development. The role of specific TGFbeta receptors is emerging, and a unique role for the type III TGFbeta receptor (TBRIII) has been suggested. We report the pattern of TBRIII expression in chicken embryos from 2 to 14 days in ovo.
