Expression of transforming growth factor-β in mast cells in human chronic periapical diseases
This study was undertaken to investigate the distribution of mast cells (MCs) and the expression of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) on tryptase positive MCs in different types of human periapical diseases. Periapical tissues of 78 participates were used in this study, including healthy control (n=28), periapical cyst (n=25), and periapical granuloma (n=25). The tissue samples were fixed in...
متن کاملPlasma levels of Transforming Growth Factor Beta in HIV-1 patients with oral candidiasis
Background and Purpose: TGF-β is a potent regulator and suppressor of the immune system and overproduction of this cytokine may contribute to immunosuppression in HIV-infected patients. Increasing population of immunosuppressed patients has resulted in increasingly frequent of fungal infections, including oral candidiasis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the plasma levels of TGF-&bet...
متن کاملThe Role of Transforming Growth Factor Beta 1 (TGFβ1) in Nasal and Paranasal Sinuses Polyposis
Background and Objectives: Nasal polyposis is a diseases resulting from complex pathogenetic mechanisms. Some studies showed that TGFβ1 had significant role in this pathogenesis. In this study, we investigated the roe of cytokines and mediators in polyp development. Material and Methods: In this case- control study, healthy nasal mucosal samples were obtained from 24 peopl...
متن کاملExpression of Transforming Growth Factor Beta 1 in Vitiligo
Background: Vitiligo is characterized by selective destruction of melanocytes. Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFβ 1) is the main product of regulatory T cells (Tregs) which are deficient in vitiligo. Thus, lower levels of serum TGFβ 1 are expected in vitiligo. However, TGFβ 1 is a keratinocytederived cytokine with inhibitory effect on melanocyte activity. Thus it may be expected to be high...
متن کاملTransforming growth factor beta 1 expression in gastric carcinoma.
Many types of human malignant tumor have been reported to amplify transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) gene and overexpress its protein. However, little work has been done about the content of TGF-beta 1 protein in tissue and blood of patients with malignant tumors. TGF-beta 1 protein of tissue (n = 29) and serum TGF-beta 1 levels in patients with gastric carcinoma (n = 62) were compa...
