Thus, B-Myb induction, IRF1 decrease, and IRF8 protein degradation are recognized as TNF-specific induced osteoclastogenic mechanisms, which form an inflammatory osteoclastogenic program. Targeting the mechanisms in this specific program has therapeutic implications in the selective treatment of ...
Bone, a specialized form of connective tissue, is the main element of the skeletal system. Its formation is a very complex but finely orchestrated process in which bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) plays the major role in the regulation of osteoblast lineage-specific differentiation and later bone ...
TGF-β synthesis and activation.TGF-βs are synthesized as inactive precursors that contain pre-region (Signal peptide) and pro-region (N terminal peptide - LAP). Processing of inactive form starts with proteolytic cleavage that removes signal peptide from pre-pro-TGF-βs form. After dimerization...
We also generated a transgenic line expressing a heat-shock inducible dominant-negative form of zebrafish Alk5a (DNAlk5a), a Tgf-ß receptor I, as well as a mutant tgfß1b line (Figures 4A–4G). To promote TGF-β signaling, we generated an nfatc1-driven tgfß1b-overexpression ...

Similar to neutralizing antibodies, the soluble form of the TGF-β receptor acts as ligand traps that block TGF-β, disturbing or preventing the interaction between the ligand and membrane-bound receptors. This concept has been proved in a several studies. The expression of soluble Fc:TGF-β ty...
The free form of NF-kB is active and shows an inflammatory response [93,94,95,96,97,98,99] Full size image Therapeutic role of pirfenidone by inhibition of TGF-β Pirfenidone (5-methyl-1-phenyl-2-[1H]-pyridone) has anti-fibrotic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-oxidant properties. These ...
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is used for the treatment of in situ cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), the second most common form of skin cancer, as well as for its precancerous form, actinic keratosis. However, relapses after the treatment can occur. Transforming growth factor β1 (TGF...
Interestingly, our studies reveal that macrophages lacking TβRII have defects in expression of a set of genes that form the hallmark of the M2 polarizing program, suggesting that TGFβ signaling is needed for the alternative activation of macrophages....
