Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) molecules are well known for their immunomodulatory properties and their function in tissue regeneration and remodeling. Objectives: To evaluate the interaction of TGF-β1 engineered MSCs with T cells and dendritic cells (DCs) and their modulatory effect on the immune response. Methods: MSCs and DCs were generat...

idiopathic chronic urticaria (icu), the most common form (70-80%) of chronic urticaria is supposed to have immune basis causes. it is speculated that the promoter polymorphism of tgf-β1 gene may be involved in icu. this condition is thought to affect at least 0.1% of the population and often can be severe and difficult to treat. a total of 40 patients with icu and 41 normal subjects were studie...

background: normal tissue toxicity continues to remain as a major challenge for radiation oncologists for delivering the total dose to the tumour cells in cancer patients. cellular, molecular and plasma based early biomarkers to predict the overreactions and non-overreactions of normal tissue toxicity before the initiation of radiotherapy can be valuable for personalised treatment. the aim of t...

background: transforming growth factor-β1 (tgf-β1) has been found to play a crucial role in early central nervous system development. several studies have illustrated decreased tgf-β1 levels in sera and brains of autistic children. two point mutations in the tgf-β1 signal peptide at 869t/c and 915g/c have been reported to influence tgf-β1 expression. the aim of the present study was to investig...

Abstract Background and Aims The transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) is a pleiotropic cytokine, with distinct roles both in fibrosis inflammation acts through the Smad signalling renal injury. We sought expression of TGF-β1/Smad ANCA associated glomerulonephritis (AAGN) we assessed this correlation injury at diagnosis as well progression. Method evaluated immunohistochemical TGF-β1, phosphor...

background: successful pregnancy in allopregnant women depends upon the control of graft rejection mechanisms. it has been suggested that some immunosuppressive cytokines contribute to successful pregnancy and transplantation. transforming growth factor beta (tgf-   β) exhibits potent immunoregulatory and anti-inflammatory properties which might prolong graft survival. recent studies suggest a ...

Suppose that α1,α2,β1,β2∈ℝ. Let α1,α2>1 be irrational and of finite type such 1,α1−1,α2−1 are linearly independent over ℚ. c a real number in the range 1<c<12∕11. In this paper, it is proved there exist infinitely many primes intersection Beatty sequences ℬα1,β1=⌊α1n+β1⌋, ℬα2,β2=⌊α2n+β2⌋ Piatetski-Shapiro sequence

background: tnf-α is a multifunctional proinflammatory cytokine and tgf-β1 is a secretory protein controlling epithelial proliferation and differentiation. keratocyst presents an aggressive behavior and a growth mechanism different from that of radicular cyst. aim: in this line, the present study aimed at evaluating tnf-α and tgf-β1 level and its association with histopathological findings in t...

Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a chronic autoimmune disease, featuring fibrosis in multiple organs. The serum from SSc patients contain inflammatory mediators, contributing to SSc pathogenesis and could be used to develop cell culture models. Here, we compared the fibrotic effects of serum samples from SSc patients with TGFβ1 on human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs). HDF cells were cultured in four diff...
