Expression 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 ...

Diverse cellular TGF-β1 and TGF-β3 gene expression in normal human and murine lung. R.K. Coker, G.J. Laurent, S. Shahzeidi, N.A. Hernández-Rodríguez, P. Pantelidis, R.M. du Bois, P.K. Jeffery, R.J. McAnulty. ERS Journals Ltd 1996. ABSTRACT: A role for transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1) has been proposed in lung development and in the pathogenesis of pulmonary disease. However, previous ...
متن کاملNeutralisation 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...
متن کاملSuppression of Latent Transforming Growth Factor (TGF)-β1 Restores Growth Inhibitory TGF-β Signaling through microRNAs
Cancer cells secreting excess latent TGF-β are often resistant to TGF-β induced growth inhibition. We observed that RNAi against TGF-β1 led to apoptotic death in such cell lines with features that were, paradoxically, reminiscent of TGF-β signaling activity and that included transiently enhanced SMAD2 and AKT phosphorylation. A comprehensive search in Hela cells for potential microRNA drivers o...
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...
