TL;DR: In this article, Latency-Aged Peptide (LAP) was shown to be a ligand for the integrin alpha v beta 6 and that alpha-v beta 6-expressing cells induce spatially restricted activation of TGF beta 1.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is shown that mice lacking this integrin are completely protected from pulmonary edema in a model of bleomycin-induced acute lung injury (ALI), and that blocking TGF-beta or its activation could be effective treatments for this currently untreatable disorder.
The Integrin avb6 Binds and Activates Latent TGFb1: A Mechanism for Regulating Pulmonary Inflammation and Fibrosis

TL;DR: Thrombospondin 1 can exaggerated inflammation and are pro- activate TGFb by binding to a defined site on LAP and tected from pulmonary fibrosis, and data identify a inducing a conformational change in the latent complex.
