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 کاملEffects of transforming growth factor-beta 1 on human arterial smooth muscle cells in vitro.
Control of the thickness of the arterial wall is critical, as excessive overgrowth of constituent smooth muscle cells (SMCs) may interfere with blood flow. Effects on SMCs in vitro of several growth factors that are present in blood and/or that are produced endogenously in the arterial wall under certain conditions suggest that influences of endocrine, paracrine, and autocrine nature from stimu...
متن کاملTransforming Growth Factor Beta-1 in Human Colorectal Cancer Patients
Aim: Colorectal cancer patients are treated with surgery and sometimes radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-β1) acts both as an inhibitor of tumor growth and as a promoter of tumor progression. The aim of this study was to determine the levels of TGF-β1 in plasma in colorectal cancer patients and relate these to the effect of clinicopathological variables. Metho...
متن کاملBasic fibroblast growth factor counteracts the suppressive effect of transforming growth factor-beta 1 on human myeloid progenitor cells.
We have previously shown that basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) is mitogenic for human bone marrow stromal cells and enhances myelopoiesis in human long-term bone marrow culture. In the present study, we examined the mechanism by which bFGF enhances granulopoiesis. We observed that bFGF significantly abrogated the inhibitory effect of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) on granul...
