Schematic diagram depicting the involvement of deer TMSB10 during antler growth. a TMSB10 expression levels in the different layers of the growing antler, the distribution of blood vessels, and the structure of an antler. b Diagram of potential mechanisms of TMSB10 involvement in rapid antler growth without inducing cancer. Deer TMSB10 interacted with endothelial cells to promote proliferation and migration, ultimately leading to angiogenesis. TMSB10 promoted chondrogenesis and suppressed the proliferation of AP cells.
