Enhanced TGF-β Signaling Contributes to the Insulin-Induced Angiogenic Responses of Endothelial Cells

Summary: Angiogenesis, the development of new blood vessels, is a key process in disease. We reported that insulin promotes translocation of transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) receptors to the plasma membrane of epithelial and fibroblast cells, thus enhancing TGF-β responsiveness. Since insulin pr...
