Abstract
TGF-beta research is proceeding at an exponential pace. Studies in this area have become increasingly relevant to many areas of cell regulation, continually providing new surprises and findings. One may confidently predict that TGF-beta will be one of the key molecules in future attempts to establish an integrated view of the processes whereby cells coordinate their own and mutual functions. We have seen only the beginning, and this minireview is only a glimpse.Keywords
