Plasma levels of Transforming Growth Factor Beta in HIV-1 patients with oral candidiasis
Background and Purpose: TGF-β is a potent regulator and suppressor of the immune system and overproduction of this cytokine may contribute to immunosuppression in HIV-infected patients. Increasing population of immunosuppressed patients has resulted in increasingly frequent of fungal infections, including oral candidiasis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the plasma levels of TGF-&bet...
متن کاملPlatelet-derived growth factor.
Platelet-derived growth factor was purified from fresh platelets by a large-scale procedure not involving the use of SDS (sodium dodecyl sulphate). The product, 0.5 mg of platelet-derived growth factor, obtained from about 3 x 1013 platelets migrated as a single component in analytical gel electrophoresis in the presence of SDS and showed no inhomogeneity on sedimentation-equilibrium analysis i...
متن کاملInteraction of platelet-derived growth factor with thrombospondin 1.
Key factors that mediate vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration are platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and thrombospondin 1 (TSP1). We now report that PDGFBB bound tightly and specifically to TSP1, that this interaction was markedly dependent on the disulphide bond arrangement in TSP1, and that binding of PDGFBB to TSP1 did not preclude PDGFBB from binding to its receptor on...
متن کاملPlatelet-derived Growth Factor Stimulates the Release
The mitogenic action of growth factors involves the stimulation of intracellular protein kinases. In this report we have characterized the major protein kinase released from Balb/c 3T3 and normal rat kidney plasma membranes by the action of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). PDGF appears to stimulate the release of approximately 10 proteins, at least one of which is a kinase capable of ph...
متن کاملHypoxia-inducible factor-1 α/platelet derived growth factor axis in HIV-associated pulmonary vascular remodeling
BACKGROUND Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients are at increased risk for the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Recent reports have demonstrated that HIV associated viral proteins induce reactive oxygen species (ROS) with resultant endothelial cell dysfunction and related vascular injury. In this study, we explored the impact of HIV protein induced oxidative ...
