Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) is considered a premalignant condition characterized by aggressive fibrosis of the submucosal tissues of the oral cavity reflecting its malignant transformation potential. Activation of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) signaling has been reported to lead increased collagen production and fibrosis. Recently, significant upregulation of TGF-β1 has been reported in OSMF as compared to normal tissues. Therefore, inhibition of the TGF-β1 may pave for the development of therapeutics of OSMF. Based on the structure-assisted drug designing, we found “silmitasertib” as potent inhibitor of TGF-β1. We suggest that this molecule can be validated and implemented for the treatment of OSMF.

Analyses of cDNA clones coding for simian type 1 transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta 1) suggest that there are three potential sites for N-linked glycosylation located in the amino terminus of the precursor region. Analysis of [3H]glucosamine-labeled serum-free supernatants from a line of Chinese hamster ovary cells which secrete high levels of recombinant TGF-beta 1 indicate that the TGF-beta 1 precursor, but not the mature form, is glycosylated. Digestion with neuraminidase resulted in a shift in migration of the two TGF-beta 1 precursor bands, which suggests that they contain sialic acid residues. Endoglycosidase H had no noticeable effect. Treatment with N-glycanase produced two faster-migrating sharp bands, the largest of which had a molecular weight of 39 kilodaltons. TGF-beta 1-specific transcripts produced by SP6 polymerase programmed the synthesis of a 42-kilodalton polypeptide which, we suggest, is the unmodified protein backbone of the precursor. Labeling with 32Pi showed that the TGF-beta 1 precursor was phosphorylated in the amino portion of the molecule.

The pleiotropic immunoregulatory cytokine transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) potently suppresses production of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the causative agent of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, in the chronically infected promonocytic cell line U1. TGF-beta significantly (50-90%) inhibited HIV reverse transcriptase production and synthesis of viral proteins in U1 cells stimulated with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) or interleukin 6 (IL-6). Furthermore, TGF-beta suppressed PMA induction of HIV transcription in U1 cells. In contrast, TGF-beta did not significantly affect the expression of HIV induced by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha). These suppressive effects were not mediated via the induction of interferon alpha (IFN-alpha). TGF-beta also suppressed HIV replication in primary monocyte-derived macrophages infected in vitro, both in the absence of exogenous cytokines and in IL-6-stimulated cultures. In contrast, no significant effects of TGF-beta were observed in either a chronically infected T cell line (ACH-2) or in primary T cell blasts infected in vitro. Therefore, TGF-beta may play a potentially important role as a negative regulator of HIV expression in infected monocytes or tissue macrophages in infected individuals.

The growth-suppressive function of the retinoblastoma susceptibility gene product, RB, has been implicated in the mediation of growth inhibition and negative regulation of certain proliferation related genes by transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1). Early gene responses to TGF-beta 1 were examined in order to determine their dependence on the cell cycle and on the growth-suppressive function of RB. TGF-beta 1, which rapidly elevates the steady-state level of junB and PAI-1 mRNAs and decreases that of c-myc mRNA, induces these responses in S-phase populations of Mv1Lu lung epithelial cells containing RB in a phosphorylated state. Since in this state RB is presumed to lack growth-suppressive activity, the response to TGF-beta 1 was also examined in DU145 human prostate carcinoma cells whose mutant RB product lacks growth-suppressive function. In these cells, TGF-beta 1 also decreases c-myc expression at the transcription initiation level. These results suggests that the c-myc, junB, and PAI-1 responses to TGF-beta 1 are not restricted to the G1 phase of the cell cycle and that down-regulation of c-myc expression by TGF-beta 1 can occur through a mechanism independent from the growth-suppressive function of RB.

Cultured endothelial cells isolated from fenestrated capillaries express many properties characteristic of their in vivo differentiated phenotype, including the formation of a limited number of fenestrae. In this study, we have investigated whether physiological factors that control cell differentiation might regulate the surface density of fenestrae in capillary endothelial cells. We have found that treatment of the cultures with retinoic acid (10 microM) induces a more than threefold increase in the surface density of endothelial fenestrae, whereas transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) (2 ng ml-1) causes a sevenfold decrease in the surface density of these structures. These results show that the expression of endothelial fenestrae is susceptible to bidirectional modulation by physiological signals, and suggest that retinoids and TGF beta may participate in the regulation of fenestral density of capillary endothelium in vivo.
