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 کاملThe Role of Transforming Growth Factor Beta 1 (TGFβ1) in Nasal and Paranasal Sinuses Polyposis
Background and Objectives: Nasal polyposis is a diseases resulting from complex pathogenetic mechanisms. Some studies showed that TGFβ1 had significant role in this pathogenesis. In this study, we investigated the roe of cytokines and mediators in polyp development. Material and Methods: In this case- control study, healthy nasal mucosal samples were obtained from 24 peopl...
متن کاملFibroblast growth factor enhances type beta 1 transforming growth factor gene expression in osteoblast-like cells
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and type beta transforming growth factor (TGF beta) are potent modulators of proliferation and differentiation in many types of cells. TGF beta acts in an autocrine manner, and the regulation of TGF beta gene expression is one of the crucial events in the control of cellular functions. This study examines FGF regulation of TGF beta 1 gene expression in osteoblast-...
متن کاملTransforming growth factor-beta signaling in stem cells and cancer.
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) and TGF-beta-related proteins, such as the bone morphogenetic proteins, have emerged as key regulators of stem cell renewal and differentiation. These proteins have disparate roles in regulating the biology of embryonic stem cells and tumor suppression, and they help define the selection of cell fate and the progression of differentiation along a linea...
متن کاملExpression of Transforming Growth Factor Beta 1 in Vitiligo
Background: Vitiligo is characterized by selective destruction of melanocytes. Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFβ 1) is the main product of regulatory T cells (Tregs) which are deficient in vitiligo. Thus, lower levels of serum TGFβ 1 are expected in vitiligo. However, TGFβ 1 is a keratinocytederived cytokine with inhibitory effect on melanocyte activity. Thus it may be expected to be high...
