Molecular and cell biology of TGF-beta

Mineral and Electrolyte Metabolism
A B Roberts

Abstract

The TGF-betas are a remarkable set of peptides consisting of three highly homologous isoforms, TGF-beta 1, 2, and 3. Distinguished initially for their ability to inhibit the growth of most epithelial and hematopoietic cells and to regulate the production of extracellular matrix by mesenchymal cells, these peptides are now known to act via autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine modes to control a wide variety of developmental processes and to play key roles in the pathogenesis of many diseases including especially fibrotic diseases, parasitic diseases, autoimmune diseases, and carcinogenesis. The activity of these peptides is under tight control by processes including regulation of the expression of the isoforms and their receptors and of the trafficking and activation of their latent forms.

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.

Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndromes

This feed focuses on a rare genetic condition called Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndromes, which are characterized by autoantibodies against multiple endocrine organs. This can lead to Type I Diabetes.
