| Target Function | Transforming Growth Factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) is a multifunctional cytokine expressed in virtually all tissue types. Regulation of TGF-beta 1 expression occurs by the proteolytic processing of the preproprotein, where a latent complex consisting of a latency-associated peptide (LAP) homodimer, mature peptide homodimer and latent TGF-beta binding protein (LTBP) form and remain in the extracellular matrix. Interactions with the activation pathway release the mature TGF-beta 1 homodimer that is a ligand for a heterodimeric complex composed of TGF-beta RII and either TGF-beta RI or ALK-1. TGF-beta 1 was initially isolated from platelets where it plays a role in wound healing through proliferation of fibroblasts and activation of pathways for extracellular matrix synthesis of collagens and proteoglycans. TGF-beta 1 is involved in the regulation of the immune response through the induction of Th17 or Treg cells based on concentrations within the microenvironment. |
| Tissue Specificity | TGF-beta 1 expression is almost ubiquitous in all tissue types in concert with the wide-range of functions in wound healing, developmental cell patterning, regulation of epithelial and endothelial tissues, angiogenesis, bone remodeling, neuroprotection, and inflammatory regulation. |
| Cellular Localization | Secreted protein as both a latent protein complex in the extracellular matrix and activated mature protein. |
| Involvement In Disease | TGF-beta 1 plays an important role as a cancer tumor suppressor, however, dysregulation of TGF-beta 1 can promote tumor growth, metastasis and immune evasion that is associated with various cancers, including breast cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, and prostate cancer. Dysregulated TGF-β1 has been implicated in autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, and inflammatory bowel diseases. |
