'''Activin A''' or '''inhibitin β chain A''' (ActA) is a member of the TGF-β superfamily that inhibits the proliferation of breast cancer cells. Activin interacts with activin receptors to induce phosphorylation of intracellular signalling molecules which regulate the transcription of many genes in a cell- and tissue-specific manner. | '''Activin A''' or '''inhibitin β chain A''' (ActA) is a member of the TGF-β superfamily that inhibits the proliferation of breast cancer cells.
