Opis:
Transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) is a cytokine affecting cell proliferation and development, which also has an immunomodulatory activity. Correlations between polymorphisms of the TGF-β1 gene and clinical parameters of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) were reported previously in adults. Here, we tested whether such correlations occur in pediatric patients suffering from IBD. One hundred and four pediatric IBD patients were involved in this study. Among them, 36 were diagnosed with Crohn's Disease (CD) and 68 were diagnosed with ulcerative colitis (UC). The control group consisted of 103 children, in which IBD was excluded. TGF-β1 levels were determined in plasma and intestinal mucosa samples. The presence of the TGF β1 protein and the amount of TGF β1 mRNA were estimated in intestinal mucosa by immunohistochemistry and reverse transcription Real-Time PCR, respectively. Four common polymorphisms of the TGF-β1 gene were investigated: -800G/A, -509C/T, 869T/C and 915G/C. No significant correlation between TGF-β1 genotypes and (i) TGF-β1 levels in plasma and tissue samples, (ii) TGF-β1 gene expression efficiency in intestinal mucosa, (iii) IBD clinical parameters and (iv) inflammatory activity could be detected in children suffering from IBD. We conclude that, contrary to previous suggestions, the four common polymorphisms of the TGF-β1 gene do not influence the susceptibility to or clinical parameters of IBD in the tested population of children.

Opis:
The dysregulation of the metabolism of glycosaminoglycan and protein components of extracellular matrix (ECM) is a typical feature of diabetic complications. High glucose-induced enrichment of ECM with hyaluronan (HA) not only affects tissue structural integrity, but influences cell metabolic response due to the variety of effects depending on the HA polymer molecular weight. TSP-1-dependent activation of TGFβ1 axis is known to mediate numerous matrix disorders in diabetes, but its role concerning HA has not been studied so far. In this work we demonstrated that 30 mM D-glucose increased the incorporation of [3H]glucosamine in high-molecular-weight (> 2000 kDa) HA of medium and matrix compartments of human mesangial cultures. Simultaneously, the synthesis of HA with lower molecular weight and HA degradation were not altered. The cause of the increased high-molecular-weight HA synthesis consisted in the up-regulation of hyaluronan synthase (HAS) 2 mRNA without alterations of the expression of HAS3, which generates HA of lower molecular weight. D-Glucose at 30 mM also stimulated the production of transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1), the excessive activation of which was determined by the up-regulation of thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1). The blockage of TGFβ1 action either by neutralizing anti-TGFβ1 antibodies or by quenching the TGFβ1 activation (with TSP-1-derived synthetic GGWSHW peptide) abolished the effect of high glucose on HAS2 mRNA expression and normalized the synthesis of HA. Exogenous human TGFβ1 had the same effect on HAS2 expression and HA synthesis as high glucose treatment. Therefore, we supposed that TSP-1-dependent TGFβ1 activation is involved in the observed high glucose effect on HA metabolism. Since high-molecular-weight HA polymers, unlike middle- and low-molecular weight HA oligosaccharides, are known to possess anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic functions, we suppose that the enrichment of mesangial matrix with high-molecular-weight HA may represent an endogenous mechanism to limit renal injury in diabetes.

Transforming Growth Factor-β1
longitudinal assessment of TGF-β1 level
Opis:
Previously published studies on levels of the transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) protein and mRNA of the corresponding gene in patients suffering from inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) gave varying results, leading to contradictory conclusions. To solve the contradictions, we aimed to assess longitudinally TGF-β1 protein and mRNA levels at different stages of the disease in children suffering from IBD. The study group consisted of 19 pediatric patients with IBD at the age between 3.5 and 18.4 years. The control group consisted of 42 children aged between 2.0 and 18.0 years. The plasma TGF-β1 concentration was measured with ELISA. mRNA levels of the TGF-β1 gene isolated from samples of the intestinal tissue were assessed by reverse transcription and real-time PCR. Levels of TGF-β1 protein in plasma and corresponding mRNA in intestinal tissue were significantly higher in IBD patients than in controls. TGF-β1 and corresponding transcripts were also more abundant in plasma and intestinal tissue, respectively, in patients at the active stage of the disease than during remission. In every single IBD patient, plasma TGF-β1 level and mRNA level in intestinal tissue was higher at the active stage of the disease than during remission. Levels of TGF-β1 and corresponding mRNA are elevated during the active stage of IBD but not during the remission. Longitudinal assessment of this cytokine in a single patient may help to monitor the clinical course of IBD.

Opis:
Alcohol abuse is one of the most significant factors in the development of liver fibrosis. The pathomechanism of liver fibrosis is the same regardless of its etiology. Fibrosis is a sign of an imbalance between the synthesis of the extracellular matrix components and their degradation. Among the many cytokines that affect hepatic stellate cell activation it seems that transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) is the most significant, either as the direct factor stimulating polymerase chain reaction (HSC) proliferation and transformation into myofibroblasts, or as the direct factor causing an increase in the activity of genes responsible for the synthesis of extracellular matrix components. The aim of the study was to reveal possible dependencies and differences between the presence of certain alleles of the TGF-β1 gene and its blood level in the study and control group. Blood samples were obtained from 39 patients, the control group consisted of 21 patients. The results obtained in the course of this study showed no statistically significant differences between the frequencies of particular polymorphisms. In the case of haplotype frequencies, insignificant differences were found for the algorithm Excoffier-Laval-Balding predicted haplotypes while one significant difference between the study and control groups was detected in case of the TC haplotype frequency predicted using the Expectation-Maximization algorithm. However, the difference in frequency of TC haplotype predicted by both algorithms was not significant. Genetic analysis of two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in exon I of the TGF-β1 gene did not show significant differences between the occurrence of particular polymorphisms and haplotypes in the populations under study.
