Transforming growth factor-beta induces plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 in cultured human orbital fibroblasts.
PURPOSE The level of constitutive plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1) expression in cultured human orbital fibroblasts is considerably lower than that found in dermal fibroblasts. This divergence in PAI-1 expression implies differences in the pericellular proteolytic environment and, therefore, in the turnover of extracellular matrix. In this article, the authors examine the effect o...
متن کاملPlasma 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 کاملTumor Necrosis Factor- Induces Transforming Growth Factor- 1 Expression in Lung Fibroblasts Through the Extracellular Signal–Regulated Kinase Pathway
Increased expression of transforming growth factor (TGF)1 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)are thought to play important roles in the development of pulmonary fibrosis. We recently reported that TNFupregulates TGF1 expression in primary mouse lung fibroblasts (MLFs), a key cell population in fibrogenesis. In the present study, we have investigated signal transduction pathways involved in TNFupreg...
متن کاملTransforming growth factor beta induces anchorage-independent growth of NRK fibroblasts via a connective tissue growth factor-dependent signaling pathway.
Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a M(r)38,000 cysteine-rich peptide, the synthesis and secretion of which are selectively induced by transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta). The relationship of CTGF to TGF-beta action on fibroblastic cells is not well understood. TGF-beta has the unique ability to stimulate the growth of normal fibroblasts in soft agar, a property of transformed cel...
