Endoglin (Osler-Rendu-Weber syndrome 1), CD105, is a type I membrane glycoprotein located on cell surfaces and is a part of the TGF beta receptor complex. Its gene is mapped to human chromosome 8. The protein consists of a homodimer of 180 kDA with disulfide links. It has been found on endothelial cells, activated macrophages, fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells. Endoglin has a role in the development of the cardiovascular system and in vascular remodeling and has been found to be elevated in pregnant women who subsequently develop preeclampsia.
