Effects of TGF-β on Hyaluronan Anabolism in Fibroblasts Derived from the Synovial Membrane of the Rabbit Temporomandibular Joint

Abstract: Hyaluronan (HA) synthesis in the synovial membrane is affected by various chemical mediators. It is hypothesized that transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) would be a mediator to modulate HA synthesis in cultured synovial membrane fibroblasts of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). Fibroblasts were extracted from the TMJ synovial membrane of four-week-old Japanese white rabbits. The amount of HA and expression levels of HA synthase (HAS) mRNAs induced by TGF-beta 1 treatment were analyzed by means of hi… Show more

“…TGF-␤1 is present at high levels in synovial fluids of OA and RA patients (17) and expected to act as an anabolic factor for HA production. However, our data provide evidence that the stimulation of arthritic synovial fibroblasts by TGF-␤1 fails in generation and accumulation of high molecular weight HA because of insufficient down-regulation of HYBID.…”

“…It is synthesized by three HA synthase isoforms (HAS1-3), located at the inner surface of the cell membrane. TGF-␤ is known as a potent inducer of HA synthesis in synovial and lung fibroblast (50,51). For this purpose, HDF were stimulated with TGF-␤, Bt 2 cAMP, TGF-␤ plus Bt 2 cAMP, or were left untreated.…”
