TGF-β1对瘢痕疙瘩形成的影响

转化生长因子-β1(transformed growth factor-beta 1, TGF-β1)是人体活性最强的促纤维化刺激因子之一,它广泛参与细胞增殖与分化的各种病理生理过程。作为伤口修复和组织再生的刺激物,TGF-β1在许多纤维化疾病的病理生理过程中发挥关键作用。瘢痕疙瘩是一种异于普通瘢痕的纤维增生性良性真皮肿瘤,其起源于皮肤的创伤,是组织愈合过程失调的结果。其特征在于真皮和皮下组织中存在成纤维细胞过度增生和细胞外基质(extracellular matrix, ECM),尤其是胶原蛋白的过度积累。在这个过程中,TGF-β1发挥着重要的调节作用。本文就TGF-β1影响调节瘢痕疙瘩的形成进行综述。     

P311 binds to the latency associated protein and downregulates the expression of TGF-beta1 and TGF-beta2

P311 is an 8-kDa protein originally found in neurons and muscle. We recently showed that expression of P311 in NIH 3T3 cells induced a myofibroblast phenotype with low TGF-beta1 expression. Here we demonstrate that P311 downregulates not only TGF-beta1, but also TGF-beta2, expression, with no effect on TGF-beta3. In addition, P311 interacts with TGF-beta2 in a yeast two-hybrid system through a sequence encompassing part of the TGF-beta latent associated protein (LAP) and part of mature TGF-beta2. Coimmunoprecipitations demonstrated interaction between P311 and TGF-beta1 and 2, but not TGF-beta3. Additional coimmunoprecipitations after introducing LAP or mature TGF-beta1 into cells demonstrated P311 binding to LAP, but not to mature TGF-beta. P311 has a conserved PEST domain, which generally serves as a rapid degradation signal. Deletion of the PEST domain reversed the effect of P311 on TGF-beta isoforms. Finally, Smad3 activity was decreased in P311-expressing cells, but was corrected by exogenous TGF-beta1 treatment, which also elevated TGF-beta1 mRNA level. This suggested that P311 downregulates TGF-beta1 and 2 in part by blocking TGF-beta autoinduction.     

Genetic polymorphisms in transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGFB1) and childhood asthma and atopy

Transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGFB1) may influence asthma by modulating allergic airway inflammation and airway remodeling. The role of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of TGFB1 in asthma remains inconclusive. We examined TGFB1 SNPs in relation to asthma risk and degree of atopy among 546 case-parent triads, consisting of asthmatics aged 4–17 years and their parents in Mexico City. Atopy to 24 aeroallergens was determined by skin prick tests. We genotyped five TGFB1 SNPs, including two known functional SNPs [C-509T (rs1800469), T869C (rs1982073)] and three others (rs7258445, rs1800472, rs8179181), using TaqMan and Masscode assays. We analyzed the data using log-linear and polytomous logistic methods. Three associated SNPs, including the two known functional SNPs, were statistically significantly related to asthma risk. Individuals carrying the T allele of C-509T had an increased risk of asthma [relative risk (RR) = 1.42, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.08–1.87 for one copy; RR (95%CI) = 1.95 (1.36–2.78) for two copies]. For T869C, the RRs (95%CI) were 1.47 (1.09–1.98) for one and 2.00 (1.38–2.90) for two copies of the C allele. Similar results were found for rs7258445. The haplotype containing all three risk alleles conferred an increased risk of asthma (RR = 1.48, 95% CI = 1.11–1.95 for one copy; RR = 1.77, 95% CI = 1.22–2.57 for two copies). These three SNPs were also related to the degree of atopy. This largest study to date of genetic variation in TGFB1 and asthma and atopy adds to increasing evidence for a role in these disorders.

The effects of G-CSF and naproxen sodium on the serum TGF-beta1 level and fracture healing in rat tibias

Local and systemic release of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta1) is known to increase during the process of fracture healing and this cytokine stimulates bone healing. The majority of the non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) inhibit fracture healing. Granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is a hematopoietic growth factor that stimulates bone marrow. In this study, the effects of the NSAID naproxen sodium, G-CSF, and both of them in combination on the TGF-beta1 serum level in rats with tibia fractures were measured and fracture healing was evaluated by histopathologic and radiologic examination. The TGF-beta1 serum levels obtained on day one (24 h after fracture but before administration of naproxen or G-CSF) were found to be similar in all of the five groups (p > 0.05). At the end of the first week, TGF-beta1 levels were significantly lower in naproxen-treated rats than those of the other groups excluding control (p = 0.002). Similar changes in TGF-beta1 levels were found at the end of the second and fourth weeks. TGF-beta1 levels were significantly higher in G-CSF-treated rats at the end of the first, second and fourth weeks (p < 0.05). Fracture healing scores measured with histopathological and radiological methods were higher in G-CSF-treated rats than in naproxen-treated ones. When both naproxen and G-CSF were given, the scores resumed to normal. The results point to the negative effect of naproxen sodium on fracture healing is due to its decreasing effect on the level of TGF-beta1, which may be a new possible mechanism. Moreover, this negative effect can be inhibited by the use of G-CSF.     

A pilot study on the relation between irisin single-nucleotide polymorphism and risk of myocardial infarction

BackgroundMyocardial infarction (MI) is the major cause of death and disability worldwide. Many recent studies revealed the relationship between circulating irisin levels, endothelial dysfunctions and subclinical atherosclerosis in adult patients.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of Irisin gene single nucleotide polymorphism in patients with MI and its association with other clinical and laboratory variables in these patients.Patients and methodsThis study was carried out in 100 patients with MI, and 100 healthy subjects served as controls. All studied subjects underwent laboratory investigations, including measurement of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c), creatinine kinase-MB (CK-MB), troponin I (TnI) and genotyping of rs 3480 and rs726344 of Irisin genes using the TaqMan Allelic Discrimination assay technique.ResultsThere was a significant difference of Irisin genotypes in patients when compared to controls. By estimating odd ratio (OR) an association was found between G allele of rs 3480 and A allele of rs726344with increase the risk of developing myocardial infarction by 4.03 and 3.47 fold respectively. GG of rs 3480 carriers had significantly increased Troponin I and triglyceride levels, while GA carriers of rs726344 had significantly increased CKMB, Total cholesterol, LDLc, HDLc, troponin I and triglyceride levels compared with other genotypes.ConclusionG allele of rs 3480 and A allele of rs726344can considered as genetic risk factors for MI; these findings could have an impact on preventive strategy for myocardial infarction.
