Abstract

Inhibin and activin, members of transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) superfamily, have been localized immunohistochemically in fetal bovine heart endothelial cells (FBHE), suggesting that these cells produce inhibin/activin proteins. In addition, the mRNAs coding for alpha-, and beta A-subunits of inhibin/activin, and activin receptor II were expressed in these cells by in situ hybridization technique. It is concluded that inhibin/activin and activin receptor are expressed in FBHE and activin may have autocrine functions in these cells.
