Descriptor English: Growth Differentiation Factor 2
Descriptor Spanish: Factor 2 de Diferenciación de Crecimiento
Descriptor factor 2 de diferenciación del crecimiento
Entry term(s) GDF-2
Scope note: Factor de diferenciación del crecimiento que desempeña un papel regulador como factor paracrino para una amplia variedad de tipos de células durante el DESARROLLO EMBRIONARIO y en los tejidos adultos. El factor 2 de diferenciación del crecimiento es también un potente regulador de la CONDROGÉNESIS y fue previamente denominado proteína morfogenética ósea 9.
