TGF-beta is secreted predominantly as latent complexes which are stored at the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix.
The release of biologically active TGF-β isoform from a latent complex involves proteolytic processing of the complex and/or induction of conformational changes by proteins such as thrombospondin-1.
TGF-β1 is the most abundant isoform secreted by almost every cell type.
