Disease relevance of INHBE

 

Psychiatry related information on INHBE

 

High impact information on INHBE

  • In the process other factors such as activin and follistatin were serendipitously discovered [6].
  • Indeed, Ski disrupts the formation of a functional complex between the Co- and R-Smads, explaining how it could lead to repression of TGF-beta, activin, and BMP responses [7].
  • The identification of protein factors, such as epimorphin, scatter factor, and activin, that induce epithelial branching and convergent extension-like movements in embryonic tissues are important breakthroughs in our understanding of the role of mesenchyme in epithelial morphogenesis [8].
  • Nodal signaling activates a canonical TGFss pathway involving activin receptors, Smad2 transcription factors, and FoxH1 coactivators [9].
  • The TGF-beta/activin/BMP superfamily of growth factors signals through heteromeric receptor complexes of type I and type II serine/threonine kinase receptors [10].

Biological context of INHBE

 

Anatomical context of INHBE

  • Moreover, when FSTL3, which does not associate with cell membranes, was expressed as a membrane-anchored protein, its endogenous activin inhibitory activity was dramatically increased [16].
  • Although there is information on the expression of activin subunits and receptors in fibroblasts and keratinocytes, there are no reports on the regulation of FS expression in these cells [17].
  • We conclude that the expression of activin and inhibin subunits, receptors and binding proteins is affected by tumour formation in the adrenal gland and may play a role in tumorigenesis [18].
  • Objective The growth and differentiation factors activin and inhibin can affect tumour formation and steroid production in the adrenal cortex [18].
  • Activin A concentrations in human cerebrospinal fluid are age-dependent and elevated in meningitis [2].
