Journal ArticleDOI

Transforming growth factor type beta: rapid induction of fibrosis and angiogenesis in vivo and stimulation of collagen formation in vitro.

TL;DR: Further data are obtained to support a role for TGF-beta as an intrinsic mediator of collagen formation: conditioned media obtained from activated human tonsillar T lymphocytes contain greatly elevated levels of T GF-beta compared tomedia obtained from unactivated lymphocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Type beta transforming growth factor: a bifunctional regulator of cellular growth.

TL;DR: The data indicate that the effects of TGF-beta on cells are not a function of the peptide itself, but rather of the total set of growth factors and their receptors that is operant in the cell at a given time.
Journal ArticleDOI

A nuclear factor 1 binding site mediates the transcriptional activation of a type I collagen promoter by transforming growth factor-β

TL;DR: Using DNA transfection, it is shown that TGF-beta stimulates the activity of the mouse alpha 2(l) collagen promoter 5- to 10-fold in mouse NIH 3T3 and rat osteosarcoma cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Steroids and Retinoids on Wound Healing

TL;DR: Steroids and retinoids have antagonistic effects on growth factors and collagen deposition in wound healing and these effects can be relevant for treatment options in a clinical setting.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of skin development by overexpression of transforming growth factor beta 1 in the epidermis of transgenic mice

TL;DR: The macro- and microscopic appearance of these mice, as well as their neonatal lethality, most likely result from inhibition of normal skin development and suppression of epithelial cell proliferation by the overexpression of transforming growth factor beta 1.
