Urinary active transforming growth factor β in feline chronic kidney disease
The cytokine transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) has been widely implicated in the development and progression of renal fibrosis in chronic kidney disease (CKD) in humans and in experimental models. The aims of this study were to assess the association between urinary active TGF-β1 and (a) development of CKD in a cross-sectional study, (b) deterioration of renal function over 1 year in a...
متن کاملCirculating transforming growth factor-β1 levels and the risk for kidney disease in African-Americans
Transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) is known to induce progression of experimental renal disease. Here we determined whether there is an association between serum levels of TGF-beta1 and the risk factors for progression of clinically relevant renal disorders in 186 black and 147 white adults, none of whom had kidney disease or diabetes. Serum TGF-beta1 protein levels were positively an...
متن کامل17beta-Estradiol attenuates diabetic kidney disease by regulating extracellular matrix and transforming growth factor-beta protein expression and signaling.
We previously showed that supplementation with 17beta-estradiol (E2) from the onset of diabetes attenuates the development of diabetic renal disease. The aim of the present study was to examine whether E2 can also attenuate the disease process once it has developed. The present study was performed in nondiabetic and streptozotocin-induced diabetic Sprague-Dawley rats. E2 supplementation began a...

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 ...
