Association of genetic variation in the transforming growth factor beta-1 gene with serum levels and risk of colorectal neoplasia

In the normal intestinal epithelium transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGFbeta-1) acts as a growth inhibitor, but in malignant cells it may act as a tumor promoter. However, only limited information is available on genetic variation in the TGFB1 gene and its relationship to circulating levels and ri...
