Identification of potential key genes of TGF-beta signaling associated with the immune response and prognosis of ovarian cancer based on bioinformatics analysis [PDF]
Background: TGF-beta signaling is a key regulator of immunity and multiple cellular behaviors in cancer. However, the prognostic and therapeutic role of TGF-beta signaling-related genes in ovarian cancer (OV) remains unexplored.

Effects of ultrasound on Transforming Growth Factor-beta genes in bone cells [PDF]
Therapeutic ultrasound (US) is a widely used form of biophysical stimulation that is increasingly applied to promote fracture healing. Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), which is encoded by three related but different genes, is known to play a ...

Low biological fluctuation of mitochondrial CpG and non-CpG methylation at the single-molecule level
Mammalian cytosine DNA methylation (5mC) is associated with the integrity of the genome and the transcriptional status of nuclear DNA. Due to technical limitations, it has been less clear if mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is methylated and whether 5mC has a ...

Tgf-Beta isoform specific regulation of airway inflammation and remodelling in a murine model of asthma. [PDF]
The TGF-beta family of mediators are thought to play important roles in the regulation of inflammation and airway remodelling in asthma. All three mammalian isoforms of TGF-beta, TGF-beta(1-3), are expressed in the airways and TGF-beta(1) and -beta(2 ...

TGF-Beta suppresses VEGFA-mediated angiogenesis in colon cancer metastasis. [PDF]
The FET cell line, derived from an early stage colon carcinoma, is non-tumorigenic in athymic nude mice. Engineered FET cells that express TGF-α (FETα) display constitutively active EGFR/ErbB signaling.
