Laminar Organization of Cerebral Cortex in Transforming Growth Factor Beta Mutant Mice
Transforming growth factor betas (TGF?s) are one of the most widespread and versatile cytokines. The three mammalian TGF? isoforms, ?1, ?2, and ?3, and their receptors regulate proliferation of neuronal precursors as well as survival and differentiation in neurons of developing and adult nervous system. Functions of TGF?s has a wide spectrum ranging from regulating cell proliferation and differ...
متن کاملTransforming growth factor I1 gene expression in human airways
Background Asthmatic airways have a characteristic deposition of connective tissue under the epithelial basement membrane, but the mediators involved in this alteration are unknown. Several authors have postulated that transforming growth factor fl (TGF-fl) could be overexpressed in asthmatic airways. Methods Lung samples from 16 asthmatic patients, six patients with chronic obstructive pulmona...
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 کاملFibroblast Growth Factor Enhances Type/?1 Transforming Growth Factor Gene Expression in Osteoblast-like Cells
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and type/3 transforming growth factor ('rGF/3) are potent modulators of proliferation and differentiation in many types of cells. TGF/~ acts in an autocrine manner, and the regulation of TGF/3 gene expression is one of the crucial events in the control of cellular functions. This study examines FGF regulation of TGF/31 gene expression in osteoblast-like cells. Bov...
متن کاملInducible Expression of Transforming Growth Factor
Transforming growth factor 1 (TGF1) acts as a tumor suppressor at early stages of carcinogenesis, however, it has also been suggested to promote tumor progression at late stages. To determine at which stage and by what mechanisms this functional switch occurs, we have generated gene-switch-TGF1 mice in which TGF1 transgene expression can be induced in skin tumors at specific stages. These mice ...
