Anti-TGF β Receptor I Antibody detects endogenous levels of total TGF β Receptor I protein.
Transforming growth factor β receptor-1 (TGF-β R1), also known as activin receptor-like kinase 5 (ALK5) receptor, is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 9q22.3. It is widely expressed in human tissues.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human TGF beta Receptor I.
Immunogen Range: 131-180
Application
Anti-TGF β Receptor I antibody produced in rabbit has been used for:
Transforming growth factor β receptor-1 (TGF-β R1) plays an essential role in carbon nanotube-induced fibrogenesis by enhancing collagen production in lung fibroblasts. TβR-dependent signals plays a crucial role in cell growth and differentiation, and polymorphism or mutation of TGF-β R1 leads to head and neck cancer. Activin receptor-like kinase 5 (ALK5) or TGF-β R1 promotes the phosphorylation of small mothers against decapentaplegic (Smad) 2 and Smad3. Activated ALK5 inhibits migration and proliferation of endothelial cells (ECs). ALK1 acts as an antagonist for ALK5/Smad signaling. Mutation of TGF-β R1 can also cause autosomal dominant skin cancer called multiple self-healing squamous epithelioma (MSSE) or Ferguson-Smith disease (FSD).

Transforming growth factor-beta receptor (TbetaR)-dependent signals are critical for cell growth and differentiation and are often disrupted during tumorigenesis. The entire coding region of TbetaR-I and flanking intron sequences from 30 head and neck carcinomas were examined for alterations using

Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), a gut microbe-derived metabolite of dietary choline and other trimethylamine-containing nutrients, has been associated with poor prognosis in coronary heart disease. However, the role and underlying mechanisms of TMAO in the cardiac fibrosis after myocardial infarction (MI)

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a pivotal role in cancer progression and metastasis in many types of malignancies, including colorectal cancer. Although the importance of EMT is also considered in colorectal neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC), its regulatory mechanisms have not been elucidated.
Transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) serves critical functions in brain injury, especially in cerebral ischemia; however, apart from its neuroprotective effects, its role in regulating neurogenesis is unclear. TGF-β acts in different ways; the most important, canonical TGF-β activity involves
