The phrase "a transforming factor" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe an element or influence that causes significant change or transformation in a situation or process.
Example: "The introduction of renewable energy sources has become a transforming factor in the fight against climate change."
Alternatives: "a game changer" or "a pivotal element".
Adipokines include adiponectin, leptin, resistin, amyloid A, transforming growth factor β, tumor necrosis factor and interleukin-6 [ 7, 12, 19].
In addition, oligodendrocyte progenitors differentiated from hESCs express hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), Activin A, transforming growth factor β-2 (TGF-β2) and BDNF [3], which may contribute to recovery of function following SCI [4], [5].
Figure 7 shows the 2-D yIeld (y I C G )- and lifetime (τ I C G )-images, as well as their X-profiles reconstructed with a transform-factor pair of β ± = ± 0.25 μ a (B ) (λ 1 ) c.
The mRNA expression of trophic factors such as Insulin Growth Factor-1, Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-A, Transforming Growth Factor-β1, Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor and Stromal Derived Factor−1α, as well as microglia/macrophage activation, increased 24 h after NC infusion in ischemic mice treated at 4 h compared to sham-operated and to mice receiving cells at 7 d.
Huggins, Wiseman, and Reddi [ 17] presented a hypothesis of a fibroblast transforming factor (FTF).
Viewed as a "fibroblast transforming factor" postulated by Huggins, Wiseman, and Reddi [ 17], BMP could be degraded to promote diffusion through the cytoplasm, across the nuclear membrane, and transferred onto a selection of genes for bone biosynthesis.
This gene is found in B. bovis, T. parva and T. annulata, again, limiting the implication of this gene product as a host cell transforming factor.
In the chick embryo, the earliest known factor is cVg1 (homologous to mammalian growth differentiation factor 1, GDF1), a transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) signal expressed posteriorly before gastrulation.
hCG β may have a functional role in cancer progression as a transforming growth factor, an immunosuppressive agent, an inducer of metastasis or as an angiogenic factor (Iles, 2007; Cole, 2010).
Thus our equation depends on four parameters, namely the initial mutation rate µ0, selective advantage coefficient s, transforming factor a, and the number of driver genes.
