Neutralisation of TGF-β1 and TGF-β2 or exogenous addition of TGF-β3 to cutaneous rat wounds reduces scarring
Exogenous addition of neutralising antibody to transforming growth factor-β1,2 to cutaneous wounds in adult rodents reduces scarring. Three isoforms of transforming growth factor-β (1, 2 and 3) have been identified in mammals. We investigated the isoform/isoforms of TGF-β responsible for cutaneous scarring by: (i) reducing specific endogenous TGF-β isoforms by exogenous injection of isoform spe...

15 صفحه اولExpression of TGF-β3 in Isolated Fibroblasts from Foreskin
Background: The multifunctional transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) is a glycoprotein that exists in three isoforms. TGF-β3 expression increases in fetal wound healing and reduces fibronectin and collagen I and III deposition, and also improves the architecture of the neodermis which is a combination of blood vessels and connective tissue during wound healing. Fibroblasts are key ...
متن کاملDirected Blocking of TGF-β Receptor I Binding Site Using Tailored Peptide Segments to Inhibit its Signaling Pathway
Background: TGF-β isoforms play crucial roles in diverse cellular processes. Therefore, targeting and inhibiting TGF-β signaling pathway provides a potential therapeutic opportunity. TGF-β isoforms bind and bring the receptors (TβRII and TβRI) together to form a signaling complex in an ordered manner. Objectives: Herein, an antagonistic variant of TGF-β (AnTβ)...
