Abstract
⺠Normal and cancer stem cell properties are defined by their microenvironments. ⺠TGF-β family proteins play key roles in stem cell maintenance and differentiation. ⺠TGF-β family proteins mediate communication between stem cells and niche. ⺠TGF-β signaling mediates epithelial-mesenchymal transition in cancer stem cells. ⺠TGF-β family proteins regulate embryonic stem cell self-renewal and differentiation.
