ABSTRACT:
Various human monoclonal antibodies that bind to human TGF-β type II receptor to inhibit the signal transduction of human TGF-β signal into cells are produced by immunizing human antibody-producing transgenic mice generated by genetic engineering techniques with the soluble human TGF-β type II receptor. Further, these human monoclonal antibodies were demonstrated to be effective for preventing and treating various diseases induced by human TGF-β in various organs (for example, tissue fibrosis).
