Description
TGF beta 1/TGFB1 Protein belongs to the TGF-β superfamily. TGF beta 1/TGFB1 Protein plays a key role in various physiological and pathological processes such as cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, immune regulation, and extracellular matrix formation. TGF beta 1/TGFB1 Protein, Mouse/Rat (HEK293) is a recombinant TGF beta 1/TGFB1 Protein expressed by HEK293 without a tag[1][2][3].
Background
TGF beta 1/TGFB1 is a multifunctional cytokine. In immune regulation, TGF beta 1/TGFB1 can inhibit the activation of T/B cells, induce the differentiation of regulatory T cells, and promote the polarization of macrophages toward an anti-inflammatory phenotype. TGF beta 1/TGFB1 can also affect the homeostasis of the extracellular matrix by regulating the synthesis and degradation of collagen. When it is overactivated, it will lead to fibrosis of organs such as the liver and lungs. In addition, TGF beta 1/TGFB1 is also involved in the occurrence and development of tumors. In the early stage, it inhibits the proliferation of epithelial cells, induces cell apoptosis, and plays an anti-cancer role. In the late stage, it promotes tumor progression by promoting epithelial-mesenchymal transformation, tumor angiogenesis, and immune escape[1][2][3].
In Vitro
TGF beta 1/TGFB1 Protein (Mouse/Rat; 10 ng/mL; 48 h) can be used to establish a fibrotic cell model. It activates SMAD2/3 phosphorylation, upregulates the levels of fibrotic proteins (α-SMA and Col1a1), and inhibits the levels of Acan and Col2a1 in rat nucleus pulposus cells[4].
Verified Bioactivity
The ability to inhibit IL-4-dependent proliferation of TF-1 human erythroleukemic cells has an ED50 value of 5-25 pg/mL.
