Growth Factors - TGFb1

A General Introduction
TGFb1 (Transforming Growth Factor beta-1) acts primarily as an on/off switch for cell multiplication and differentiation. TGFb1 regulates the receptors for IGF-1 and PDGFBB. Individual cells behave differently in terms of cell division based on the cell type, the other proteins present and the concentration of TGFb1. Some cells up-regulate and some down-regulate DNA synthesis and/or cell division in the presence of TGF b1. Its effect on the cell depends on the status of the cell. TGFb1 helps epithelial cells (cells lining inner and outer surfaces) to specialize. When the cell is relatively unspecialized, like in tumor growth, the cell may experience an inhibitory effect, whereas if the cell is carrying out a specific role, this growth factor enhances cell activity. During inflammatory processes, TGFb1 orchestrates the healing process.

Cell proliferation activated by other growth factors or biologic effects of hormones is mediated by TGFb1. TGFb1 plays an important role in the cell division and differentiation in the areas of bone development and repair, cartilage growth and repair, blood cell development, fat cell development, and muscle cell specialization. It also is necessary for skin cell formation, and immune Tlymphocyte cell division. Thus tissue repair, immune function and regulation of inflammatory conditions all require TGFb1.

Homeopathic TGFb1
Also important in the wound healing processes, homeopathic TGFb1 assists in the relief of minor skin irritations and inflammation. Homeopathic TGFb1's anti-inflammatory properties work not only in the muscles and soft tissue, but also in the nervous system for relief of anxiety and the respiratory system for allergy relief. Similar to its function in the body, homeopathic TGFb1 may work in conjunction with homeopathic IGF-1 and homeopathic PDGFBB to maintain optimal cellular activity. Anecdotal evidence has shown the combination of homeopathic TGFb1, and homeopathic IGF-1 to help alleviate fatigue.
