## Background: Prostate cancer eventually becomes androgen-independent, suggesting that growth factors such as tgf beta 1-3 may potentially contribute to prostate neoplasia. the pattern and level of tgf beta 1-3 protein expression in normal and malignant human prostate are unknown. ## Methods: An

## Abstract Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) have been shown to be involved in various retinal diseases. We have studied the role of inflammatory cytokines on the expression and secretion of TGF‐β in human RPE cells (HRPE). Confluent cultures of HRPE derived
Growth plate chondrocytes make TGF-1 in latent form (LTGF-1) and store it in the extracellular matrix via LTGF-1 binding protein (LTBP1). 1,25-(OH) 2 D 3 (1,25) regulates matrix protein production in growth zone (GC) chondrocyte cultures, whereas 24,25-(OH) 2 D 3 (24,25) does so in resting zone (
Prostaglandin E2, transforming growth factor-@, and interleukin-1 @ variably regulate the expression of cyclooxygenase 1, cyclooxygenase 2, and lysyl oxidase in IMR90, human embryo lung fibroblasts. Prostaglandin E2 at 100 nM upregulates cyclooxygenase 1 mRNA by approximately three-fold while it dow
