Target Information
Swine transforming growth factor alpha (TGFA) is a polypeptide growth factor that belongs to the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family. In pigs, TGFA plays a critical role in cell signaling, particularly in processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. It is involved in the regulation of various physiological and pathological conditions, including tissue repair, inflammation, and cancer progression. TGFA exerts its effects by binding to the EGF receptor, activating a cascade of intracellular signals that are essential for the growth and maintenance of epithelial tissues in swine.
