hmm

I'm a scientist and work with this stuff all the time to find cures for various diseases.

The TGF B-1 is a naturally occuring protein in the human body. It is called the transforming growth factor- beta 1. This protein is used to regulate cell growth, differentiation, and helps in healing of tissues.

VEGF is vascular endothelial growth factor- is produced in humans by smooth muscle cells, it functions as a growht factor for endothelial cells.

Recombinant means that the DNA sequence was derived from the host source (in this case Human) and then cloned in to another vector (most likely bacterial). A vector is pretty much a shell that carries the DNA of the source and re-produces it.
