transforming growth factor β1 (tgf-β1) in the sera of postmenopausal osteoporotic females
conclusions our study demonstrated that tgf-β1 serum levels is higher in osteoporotic postmenopausal females than non-osteoporotic ones, and probably aberrant increase in tgf-β1 in postmenopausal females can result in uncoupled bone resorption and formation, which leads to osteoporosis. background postmenopausal osteoporosis is a major cause of morbidity in postmenopausal females. transforming ...
متن کاملThe Transforming Growth Factor-β1 (TGF-β1) Gene Polymorphisms (TGF-β1 T869C and TGF-β1 T29C) and Susceptibility to Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
UNLABELLED The aim of the present study was to integrate all the eligible studies and investigate whether the transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) gene polymorphisms (TGF-β1 T869C and TGF-β1 T29C) are correlated with postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) risk. PMOP is a common skeletal disease and several genetic factors play an important role in the development and progression of PMOP. Signific...
متن کاملAssociation of T869C gene polymorphism of transforming growth factor-β1 with low protein levels and anthropometric indices in osteopenia/osteoporosis postmenopausal Thai women.
Osteoporosis is the most common metabolic bone disease; it is an important health problem among postmenopausal women. We evaluated the association of three polymorphisms, T869C, C-509T and G915C, of the TGF-β1 gene with bone mineral density (BMD) serum TGF-β1 levels in 278 postmenopausal female osteopenia/osteoporosis subjects and 95 postmenopausal female control subjects. Serum TGF-β1 le...
متن کاملTransforming Growth Factor β1 (TGF-β1) in the Sera of Postmenopausal Osteoporotic Females
BACKGROUND Postmenopausal osteoporosis is a major cause of morbidity in postmenopausal females. Transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) and interleukin 18 (IL-18) play complex roles in normal bone metabolism, and in pathophysiology of postmenopausal osteoporosis. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to design an analytic cross sectional study in order to further clarify the role of TGF-β1 and ...
متن کاملTransforming growth factor-β1 in plaque morphea
INTRODUCTION Morphea (localized scleroderma) is a rare cutaneous disease characterized by skin fibrosis of unknown pathogenesis. Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is a potent profibrotic factor. The role of TGF-β in morphea remains unclear. AIM The goal of this study was to estimate the expression level of TGF-β1 in skin and peripheral blood mononuclear cells as well as the plasma levels o...
