Cell Contact–Dependent Immunosuppression by Cd4+Cd25+Regulatory T Cells Is Mediated by Cell Surface–Bound Transforming Growth Factor β

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 2001
CD4+CD25+ T cells have been identified as a population of immunoregulatory T cells, which mediate suppression of CD4+CD25− T cells by cell–cell contact and not secretion of suppressor cytokines.

Effect on the canine Eck fistula liver of intraportal TGF‐β alone or with hepatic growth factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Transforming growth factor‐β canceled the hepatocyte proliferation caused by transforming growth factor‐α when the two substances were mixed and administered through a disconnected central portal vein branch after creation of an Eck fistula. In contrast,

Transforming Growth Factor-β Signaling in Immunity and Cancer.

open access: yesImmunity, 2019
Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β is a crucial enforcer of immune homeostasis and tolerance, inhibiting the expansion and function of many components of the immune system. Perturbations in TGF-β signaling underlie inflammatory diseases and promote tumor

Transforming Growth Factor-β Signaling in Fibrotic Diseases and Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling is essential in embryo development and maintaining normal homeostasis. Extensive evidence shows that TGF-β activation acts on several cell types, including epithelial cells, fibroblasts, and immune cells, to

Polymorphism in TGFB1 is associated with worse non-relapse mortality and overall survival after stem cell transplantation with unrelated donors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Transforming growth factor beta-1, encoded by the TGFB1 gene, is a cytokine that plays a central role in many physiological and pathogenic processes.

Targeting transforming growth factor-β receptors in pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2020
The transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily includes several groups of multifunctional proteins that form two major branches, namely the TGF-β–activin–nodal branch and the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)–growth differentiation factor (GDF ...

Smad2-dependent glycosaminoglycan elongation in aortic valve interstitial cells enhances binding of LDL to proteoglycans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Calcific aortic valve disease is a progressive condition that shares some common pathogenic features with atherosclerosis. Transforming growth factor-ß1 is a recognized mediator of atherosclerosis and is expressed in aortic valve lesions.

β-catenin and transforming growth factor β have distinct roles regulating fibroblast cell motility and the induction of collagen lattice contraction

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2009
Background β-catenin and transforming growth factor β signaling are activated in fibroblasts during wound healing. Both signaling pathways positively regulate fibroblast proliferation during this reparative process, and the effect of transforming growth ...

Transforming growth factor β1 inhibition protects from noise-induced hearing loss [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2015
Excessive exposure to noise damages the principal cochlear structures leading to hearing impairment. Inflammatory and immune responses are central mechanisms in cochlear defensive response to noise but, if unregulated, they contribute to inner ear damage and hearing loss.
