TGF-beta signaling at the cellular junctions
… I have studied transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) signal from the secreting to the receiving cells in the developing wing epithelial cells and at the neuromuscular junctions. Cell culture studies have suggested that cells modulate morphogenetic signaling by expressing the receptors …

Involvement of TGF-beta in skin photoaging
… this thesis study was to understand the role of TGF-[beta] in skin photoaging, especially in solar elastosis. Solar elastosis, the accumulation of elastotic material in the dermal extracelluar matrix, is a major hallmark of photoaging. However, the mechanisms by which UV radiation causes solar …

TGF-beta und Empfindlichkeit für NO-abhängige Apoptose
… apoptotischen Zelltod induzieren. Dabei spielt TGF-beta eine zentrale Rolle. 48-stündige Einwirkung von TGF-beta auf nicht-transformierte NRK-Fibroblasten steigert deren normalerweise niedrige Empfindlichkeit gegenüber NO. 208 F Fibroblasten lassen sich nicht gegenüber der Apoptoseinduktion …

Einfluss von Transforming Growth Factor-beta1 (TGF-[beta]1) Genpolymorphismen auf die Hepatitis-C-induzierte Leberfibrose in vivo und Modulation der TGF-[beta]1-Synthese, Prozessierung und Sekretion durch die Serin-Protease Furin, das latent TGF-[beta] binding protein-1 und Polymorphismen der TGF-[beta]1-Signalsequenz in vitro
… the first part of this thesis, the influence of TGF-beta1 polymorphisms at position –509, codon 10, codon 25 and codon 263 on hepatitis C induced liver fibrosis was analysed. For that purpose, liver needle biopsies from 430 patients suffering from chronic hepatitis C infection were scored for the …

TGF-beta 1 PATHWAY AND AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION
… macular degeneration (AMD) using amyloid-beta (Abeta) oligomers, and assess the effect of TGF-beta 1. Furthermore a topical formulation of transforming growth factor 1 (TGF-beta 1) was developed; and TGF-beta 1 ocular pharmacokinetics profile was assessed. Methods: Sprague-Dawley male rats …

Knochenneubildung durch induktive Implantate der TGF-Beta-Familie : eine tierexperimentelle Studie zum Synergismus von BMP-2-Mutanten und TGF-Beta bei der heterotopen Osteoinduktion
… Einfluss des Faktors „Transforming growth factor beta 1“ auf das physiologische Remodelling des Knochens sind durch zahlreiche In-vitro- und In-vivo-Untersuchungen belegt. Die gentechnische Modifikation der N-terminalen Aminosäuresequenz von rekombinantem, im bakteriellen System (E. coli) …

Untersuchungen zur TGF-[beta]1-Expression und -Bioverfügbarkeit bei der Leberfibrogenese
Transforming growth factor-Beta (TGF-Beta) is one of the most important cytokines mediating fibrogenesis in the liver and in other organs. The major portion of it is secreted as latent molecule complexed either only with the “latency associated peptide” (LAP) or with LAP and the “latent TGF-Beta …

TGF-beta,Smad signaling in hepatic stellate cells and during liver fibrogenesis
Transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta is a key mediator of hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation and extracellular matrix accumulation leading to fibrosis. Aim of the present study was to perturb the TGF-beta pathway in this process by overexpression of Smad7, an intracellular antagonist of …

Expressionsstudien und Mutationsanalyse des TGF-[beta]-Antagonisten Smad7 in menschlichen hepatozellulären Karzinomen
Members of the transforming growth factor Beta (TGF-Beta) family transmit signals from membrane to nucleus via intracellular proteins known as Smads. After binding of TGF-Beta to the receptor complex (consisting of TGF-Beta receptor I and II), Smad2 and/or Smad3 are activated by phosphorylation …

TGF-beta Activated Kinase-1 (TAK1) Is a Critical Prostate Tumor Suppressor
TGF-beta activated kinase-1 (TAK1) encoded by the MAP3K7 gene is a serine/threonine protein kinase that functions in the regulation of cell proliferation, apoptosis, differentiation and/or inflammation. Genetic studies have shown that hemizygous deletion of the MAP3K7 gene is frequent (32%) in …

Modulation of TGF-beta and extracellular matrix in retionic acid-induced cleft palate
The morphologic findings of altered mesenchymal organization and delayed elevation of the palatal shelves indicate RA-induced changes in palatal shelf extracellular matrix. The patterns of localization of collagen I, III, and IV, fibronectin, tenascin, laminin and hyaluronate were investigated in …
