Human peripheral blood monocytes and neutrophils secrete TGF-beta. Activation of monocytes with LPS stimulates the secretion of TGF-beta; however, the production of TGF-beta by neutrophils was not altered by treatment with LPS. The secreted TGF-beta appears to be in a fully active form since acid tr
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-P) is a polypeptide with multiple physiological functions. lsoforms of this growth factor have important roles in control of the cell cycle, in regulation of cell-cell interactions and in growth and development.

The effect of transforming growth factor-type f3 l(TGF-P) on the growth and differentiation of normal human skin keratinocytes cultured in serum-free medium was investigated. TCF-P markedly inhibited the growth of keratinocytes at the concentrations >2 ng/ml under low Ca2+ conditions (0.1 mM). Growt
