TGFB is a multifunctional peptide that controls proliferation, differentiation, and other functions in many cell types. TGFB acts synergistically with TGFA (MIM 190170) in inducing transformation. It also acts as a negative autocrine growth factor. Dysregulation of TGFB activation and signaling may result in apoptosis. Many cells synthesize TGFB and almost all of them have specific receptors for this peptide. TGFB1, TGFB2 (MIM 190220), and TGFB3 (MIM 190230) all function through the same receptor signaling systems.[

Description
Specificity: TGF beta1 antibody detects endogenous levels of TGF1 beta1 protein. Not tested with other proteins Relevance: TGF beta 1 (Transforming Growth Factor Beta 1) is a multifunctional peptide capable of influencing cell proliferation, differentiation, and other functions in a wide range of cell types. Transformed as well as non neoplastic tissues, release transforming growth factors; and essentially all cells possess a specific TGF beta 1 receptor. The multimodal nature of TGF beta 1 is seen in its ability to stimulate or inhibit cellular proliferation. TGF beta 1 plays a fundamental role in tissue growth and differentiation involvement in adipogenesis, myogenesis, chondrogenesis, osteogenesis, epithelial cell differentiation and immune cell function.
