Transforming growth factor beta 1 or TGF-β1 is a polypeptide member of the

cell differentiation, and apoptosis. In humans, TGF-β1 is encoded by the TGFB1 gene.[5][6]

Function

TGF-β is a multifunctional set of peptides that controls

TGF-β3 all function through the same receptor signaling systems.[7]

TGF-β1 was first identified in human

kilodaltons with a potential role in wound healing.[8][9] It was later characterized as a large protein precursor (containing 390 amino acids) that was proteolytically processed to produce a mature peptide of 112 amino acids.[10]

TGF-β1 plays an important role in controlling the

leukocytes) secrete TGF-β1.[11]

T cells

Some

tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and various interleukins. It can also decrease the expression levels of cytokine receptors, such as the IL-2 receptor to down-regulate the activity of immune cells. However, TGF-β1 can also increase the expression of certain cytokines in T cells and promote their proliferation,[16] particularly if the cells are immature.[11]

B cells

TGF-β1 has similar effects on

differentiation state of the cell. It inhibits proliferation, stimulates apoptosis of B cells,[17] and controls the expression of antibody, transferrin and MHC class II proteins on immature and mature B cells.[11][17]

Myeloid cells

The effects of TGF-β1 on

TNF-α),[15] and macrophage's phagocytic can be increased by the action of TGF-β1.[11]

TGF-β1 reduces the efficacy of the
