Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) induced neutrophil recruitment to synovial tissues: implications for TGF-beta-driven synovial inflammation and hyperplasia.

Abstract: We have studied the consequences of introducing human recombinant transforming growth factor beta 1 (hrTGF-beta 1) into synovial tissue of the rat, to begin to better understand the significance of the fact that biologically active TGF-beta is found in human arthritic synovial effusions. Within 4-6 h after the intra-articular injection of 1 microgram of hrTGF-beta 1 into rat knee joints, extensive recruitment of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) was observed. Cytochemistry and high resolution histological te… Show more

“…TGFβ was also shown to prevent the production of ROS, reactive nitrogen intermediates and IL-1β by neutrophils [86]. Furthermore, TGFβ has even been shown to be a potent chemoattractant for neutrophils taking a central part in their recruitment to sites of inflammation [87][88][89]. However, another study showed that TGFβ reduces the expression of the adhesion molecule L-Selectin, resulting in impaired neutrophil recruitment to sites of inflammation [86].…”

“…This subset of innate immune cells has important functions in infection and inflammation, and includes neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils. TGF-b induces chemotaxis of both neutrophils (Brandes et al 1991;Fava et al 1991;Reibman et al 1991) and eosinophils (Luttmann et al 1998). At the molecular level, Smad3 may be required for TGFb-induced neutrophil migration, as Smad3 2/2 neutrophils show impaired chemotactic responses (Yang et al 1999).…”

“…Thus the effects of TGF-/3 in animal models are conflicting, with evidence to suggest both a contributory and inhibitory role in the pathogenic events. Thus, if injected locally into rat synovial joints, TGF-/3 causes a rapid leucocyte infiltration, with hyperplasia leading to synovitis [34,35]. In contrast, if injected systemically, TGF-^S was found to antagonize the development of polyarthritis in susceptible rats and prevent the induction of CIA in DBA/1 mice [36,37], The inhibitory effect observed with systemic administration may be through limitation of migration of inflammatory cells into the joint.…”
