BACKGROUND Transforming growth factor Beta (TGF-Beta) arrests many cell types in the G1 phase of the cell and upregulates plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1). The type 1 (TGF-Beta RI) an II (TGF-Beta RII) TGF-Beta receptors mediate these and other effects of TGF-Beta on target cells. TGF-Beta initially binds to TGF-Beta RII and subsequently TGF-Beta RI is recruited to form a heteromeric c...
Many epithelial carcinomas, including ovarian, are refractory to the antiproliferative effects of transforming growth factor (TGF) beta. In some cancers, TGF-beta resistance has been linked to TGF-beta receptor II (TbetaR-II) and Smad4 mutations; however, in ovarian cancer, the mechanism of resistance remains unclear. Primary ovarian epithelial cell cultures were used as a model system to deter...
Introduction: Transforming Growth Factor-Beta 1 (TGF-β1) is a pleiotropic cytokine with potent anti-inflammatory property, which has been considered as an essential risk factor in the inflammatory process of Ischemic Stroke (IS), by involving in the pathophysiological progression of hypertension, atherosclerosis, and lipid metabolisms. -509C/T TGF-β1 gene polymorphism&n...
The three mammalian isoforms of transforming growth factor-beta(TGF-beta1, beta2, beta3) are potent regulators of cell growth, differentiation, and extracellular matrix deposition. To study their role in skin differentiation, we investigated the expression of TGF-beta isoforms on cell growth and differentiation induction of the human keratinocyte cell line, HaCaT by elevating the Ca(2+) concent...
AIM To determine if the isoforms of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) are present in fetal, normal adult, and glaucomatous optic nerve heads. METHODS To localise cells synthesising TGF-beta, optic nerve heads were stained using antibodies to TGF-beta 1, TGF-beta 2, and TGF-beta 3. To demonstrate synthesis, human optic nerve heads from fetal, glaucomatous, and normal age matched subje...
The aim of this study was to determine the differential effects of latent and activated transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta(1) in growth control of normal and proliferating hepatocytes in vivo. Rats were injected with adenoviruses expressing control transgenes (Ctrl), latent TGF-beta(1) [TGF-beta(L)], or activated TGF-beta(1) [TGF-beta(A)]. Additional animals underwent two-thirds partial hepa...
Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta), a multifunctional cytokine that regulates a variety of biological functions, signals through a heteromeric receptor complex of the type I and type II TGF-beta receptors. The type II receptor, a transmembrane serine-threonine kinase, was cloned based on its ability to directly bind TGF-beta. Recently, a number of candidate type I TGF-beta receptors hav...
This study examines the potential role of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) in the regulation of human T lymphocyte proliferation, and proposes that TGF-beta is an important autoregulatory lymphokine that limits T lymphocyte clonal expansion, and that TGF-beta production by T lymphocytes is important in T cell interactions with other cell types. TGF-beta was shown to inhibit IL-2-depen...
PURPOSE The main cause of failure after retinal reattachment surgery is proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), in which contractile fibrocellular membranes form on the retinal surface and vitreous base. Recently, elevated levels of transforming growth factor-beta 2 (TGF-beta 2) were measured in the vitreous of patients with PVR, suggesting a possible association with the disease. Because neutra...
TGF-β Isoform Specific Regulation of Airway Inflammation and Remodelling in a Murine Model of Asthma
The TGF-beta family of mediators are thought to play important roles in the regulation of inflammation and airway remodelling in asthma. All three mammalian isoforms of TGF-beta, TGF-beta(1-3), are expressed in the airways and TGF-beta(1) and -beta(2) are increased in asthma. However, there is little information on the specific roles of individual TGF-beta isoforms. In this study we assess the ...
