Transforming growth factor-β
Dna2 was first characterized in yeast as an essential gene encoding a protein with both helicase and endonuclease activities involved in maturation of Okazaki fragments during DNA replication. Dna2 also plays a role in double-strand break (DSB) repair by homolo-gous recombination. The respective contributions of its replication and/or repair functions toward cell viability and resistance to gen...
متن کاملEffect of Transforming Growth Factor-β (TGF-β) on proliferation of gastric epithelial cells in culture
Objective: Helicobacter pylori has a well-established role in the development of gastric cancer. In vitro studies reveal increased proliferation of the gastric mucosa in the presence of H. pylori infection. It has been also shown that production of some cytokines, such as interleukin-1 beta (IL-1b) is in...

متن کاملTransforming growth factor-β: transforming plaque to stability.
Lievens and colleagues report an important finding that helps to elucidate the role of transforming growth factor b (TGFb)b in atherosclerotic plaque formation. TGFb is a widely expressed cytokine produced by smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells, monocytes, macrophages, and T cells. Clinical studies suggest that TGFb is antiatherosclerotic, citing a negative correlation between plasma TGFb co...
متن کاملTransforming growth factor-/} receptors and binding proteoglycans
Transforming growth factors-beta (TGFs-/?) are representative of a superfamily whose members were first identified as regulators of morphogenesis and differentiation, and subsequently found to be structurally related. Other members of the family include the activins and inhibins, BMPs, MIS, the DPP-C gene product and Vg-1. When assayed by affinity-labelling techniques, TGFs-/? bind to three dis...
