Background
Human transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) is a 25 kDa disulfide-linked homodimeric cytokine that belongs to the TGF-β superfamily. It is synthesized as a 390-aa precursor; after cleavage, the mature 112-aa chain remains non-covalently associated with the latency-associated peptide (LAP) to form the small latent complex (SLC). Further association with latent TGF-β-binding proteins (LTBPs) generates the large latent complex (LLC) that is deposited in the extracellular matrix. Physiological activation requires proteolytic or conformational release of the mature dimer, which then signals through a hetero-tetrameric receptor complex of TβRII and TβRI/ALK5 to phosphorylate receptor-regulated Smads (Smad2/3). TGF-β1 is produced by virtually every cell type, but platelets and bone are its richest sources in humans.
Functionally, TGF-β1 is a pleiotropic master regulator of cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, extracellular-matrix (ECM) production and immune tolerance. It maintains homeostasis by inhibiting epithelial, endothelial and hematopoietic cell growth while stimulating mesenchymal cells and driving epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). In the immune system it polarizes naïve CD4⁺ T-cells toward Foxp3⁺ regulatory T cells (iTreg) or, in the presence of IL-6, toward Th17 cells, and it suppresses macrophage activation and B-cell proliferation. In bone, TGF-β1 recruits and stimulates osteoblast lineage cells and couples resorption to formation. Deregulated TGF-β1 signaling is a hallmark of fibrosis, autoimmune diseases and cancer: early tumors are growth-inhibited by TGF-β1, whereas advanced carcinomas exploit autocrine TGF-β1 to invade, metastasize and evade immunity.
