Association between Genetic Variants of Transforming Growth Factor-β1 and Susceptibility of Pneumoconiosis: A Meta-analysis

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2017
Background: Transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) and gene variants have been extensively studied in various human diseases. For example, TGF-β1 polymorphisms were associated with fibrosis and pneumoconiosis, but the data remained controversial. The

Microenvironment and tumor cells: two targets for new molecular therapies of hepatocellular carcinoma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is one of the most frequent human cancer and is characterized by a high mortality rate. The aggressiveness appears strictly related to the liver pathological background on which cancer develops.

Salt-inducible kinases (SIKs) regulate TGFβ-mediated transcriptional and apoptotic responses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The signalling pathways initiated by members of the transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) family of cytokines control many metazoan cellular processes, including proliferation and differentiation, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and apoptosis. TGFβ

Low-dose interleukin-2 reverses chronic migraine-related sensitizations through peripheral interleukin-10 and transforming growth factor beta-1 signaling

open access: yesNeurobiology of Pain, 2022
Low-dose interleukin-2 (LD-IL-2) treatment has been shown to effectively reverse chronic migraine-related behaviors and the sensitization of trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurons through expansion and activation of peripheral regulatory T cells (Tregs) in ...

Transforming growth factor beta1 (TGFβ1) polymorphisms and breast cancer risk

open access: yesTumor Biology, 2014
Transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1) is suggested to be involved in the pathogenesis of and in complications with breast cancer (BC). Polymorphisms in TGFβ1 gene (TGFβ1) have been suggested by many investigators to have a role in susceptibility to BC; however, many discordant data have been reported.
