Transforming Growth Factor-/Jl Gene Activation and Growth of Smooth Muscle From Hypertensive Rats
Cultured vascular smooth muscle cells derived from the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) are known to replicate more rapidly than cells from the normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rat. In this study we compared the responses of vascular smooth muscle cells from the two strains to transforming growth factor-01 (TGF-/31) and evaluated its potential to account for the different growth properties o...
متن کاملTransforming growth factor beta 1 expression and effect in aortic smooth muscle cells from spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Previous studies demonstrated that in addition to an increased response to growth factors, cultured vascular smooth muscle cells derived from spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) grow to a greater density than cells from normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) has a bimodal effect on vascular smooth muscle cell growth, depending on cell density. Th...

متن کاملAbnormal regulation of transforming growth factor-beta receptors on vascular smooth muscle cells from spontaneously hypertensive rats by angiotensin II.
The effects of angiotensin II (Ang II) on the expression and characteristics of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) receptors on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) from Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were investigated. TGF-beta-induced stimulation of DNA synthesis by VSMC from WKY rats was abolished with Ang II, whereas basal and TGF-beta-stimulated DN...
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...
