TGFB3 (Transforming growth factor beta-3 proprotein) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it. Tied to Myelodysplastic syndromes / neoplasms.
Transforming growth factor beta-3 proprotein: Precursor of the Latency-associated peptide (LAP) and Transforming growth factor beta-3 (TGF-beta-3) chains, which constitute the regulatory and active subunit of TGF-beta-3, respectively. Required to maintain the Transforming growth factor beta-3 (TGF-beta-3) chain in a latent state during storage in extracellular matrix. Associates non-covalently with TGF-beta-3 and regulates its activation via interaction with 'milieu molecules', such as LTBP1 and LRRC32/GARP, that control activation of TGF-beta-3.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.45 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.93, animal model 0.69, genetic association 0.42, clinical 0.58).

No product in this corpus aims at TGFB3 yet. Drugs bind the molecule precisely: to switch it off, flag the cell for the immune system, or deliver a payload.
Broadly expressed or essential: HPA finds the RNA at low tissue specificity; a medicine acting on the wild-type protein would expose normal tissue too. HPA TGFB3: RNA low tissue specificity; no normal tissue stained high. Distribution: 1 cancer family in the corpus carries a prevalence row, label threshold or catalogue link for it (Myeloid neoplasms); Open Targets associates it with 1 specific cancer type at or above 0.5 (myelodysplastic syndrome). (Rule 7 of scripts/fetch-target-specificity.ts.)

Transforming growth factor beta-3 proprotein: Precursor of the Latency-associated peptide (LAP) and Transforming growth factor beta-3 (TGF-beta-3) chains, which constitute the regulatory and active subunit of TGF-beta-3, respectively. Required to maintain the Transforming growth factor beta-3 (TGF-beta-3) chain in a latent state during storage in extracellular matrix. Associates non-covalently with TGF-beta-3 and regulates its activation via interaction with 'milieu molecules', such as LTBP1 and LRRC32/GARP, that control activation of TGF-beta-3. Interaction with integrins results in distortion of the Latency-associated peptide chain and subsequent release of the active TGF-beta-3. Transforming growth factor beta-3: Multifunctional protein that regulates embryogenesis and cell differentiation and is required in various processes such as secondary palate development. Activation into mature form follows different steps: following cleavage of the proprotein in the Golgi apparatus, Latency-associated peptide (LAP) and Transforming growth factor beta-3 (TGF-beta-3) chains remain non-covalently linked rendering TGF-beta-3 inactive during storage in extracellular matrix. Location: Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix; Secreted (UniProt). Locus 14q24.3 (HGNC).
RNA: low tissue specificity, detected in all normal tissues.
No normal tissue stained high.
No cancer sample stained medium or high.
