Cell Type-Specific Expression of Transforming Growth Factor-β 1 in the Mouse Uterus during the Periimplantation Period

TL;DR: The colocalization of intracellular staining by anti-LC with in situ hybridization of TGF beta 1 mRNA in the luminal and glandular epithelia on days 1-4 of pregnancy indicates that the epithelial cells are the primary sites of T GF beta 1 synthesis during the preimplantation period.
Journal Article

Pharmacodynamic characterization of chemopreventive triterpenoids as exceptionally potent inducers of Nrf2-regulated genes.

TL;DR: Sporn et al. as discussed by the authors characterized the pharmacodynamic activity of imidazolide triterpenoid derivative, 1-[2-cyano-3,12-dioxooleana-1,9(11)-dien-28-oyl]imidazole (CDDO-Im or TP235), by measuring increases in Nqo1 transcript levels as a marker of cytoprotective gene induction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Smad3: A Key Player in Pathogenetic Mechanisms Dependent on TGF‐β

TL;DR: The dramatic results of the absence of Smad3 on parameters of healing of cutaneous wounds, such as reepithelialization and influx of inflammatory cells, as well as on fibrosis as modeled by radiation fibrosis of skin in mice, suggest that signaling flux through Smad 3 is critical for chemotactic activity of TGF‐β.
Journal ArticleDOI

Colocalization of TGF-beta 1 and collagen I and III, fibronectin and glycosaminoglycans during lung branching morphogenesis

TL;DR: The results indicate colocalization of TGF-beta 1 expression and that of matrix proteins in the developing lung when branching morphogenesis (cleft formation) and tissue stabilization occur, and suggests a direct participation of the growth factor in the development of the basic architecture of the lung.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transforming Growth Factor Beta-1 in Acute Myocardial Infarction in Rats

TL;DR: A significant role for TGF-beta in the response of the heart to injury is indicated, as shown by the results of immunohistochemical staining and Northern blot analysis of mRNA.
