0.050 | GeneticVariation | BEFREE | In this study, we investigated the association between osteoporosis and interleukin 10 (IL-10) -597 C > A and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) T869C (also named Leu10 > Pro) polymorphisms in Turkish postmenopausal women. | 23583365 | 2013 |

|
0.050 | GeneticVariation | BEFREE | TGF-beta1 is commonly associated with a single base change resulting in a Leu(10)-->Pro (T(869)-->C) polymorphism and is a genetic marker for susceptibility to osteoporosis. | 12706579 | 2003 |

|
0.050 | GeneticVariation | BEFREE | Transforming growth factor-beta1 is an important local regulator of bone metabolism, acting downstream of estrogen and cooperatively with vitamin D. The possible association of a C 509-->T polymorphism in the promoter region of the transforming growth factor-beta1 gene, alone or in combination with a T869-->C (Leu10-->Pro) polymorphism, with bone mineral density and genetic susceptibility to osteoporosis was investigated in 625 postmenopausal Japanese women. | 11357939 | 2001 |

|
0.050 | GeneticVariation | BEFREE | We have shown that a T869-->C polymorphism of the transforming growth factor-beta1 gene, which results in a Leu-->Pro substitution at amino acid 10, is associated with bone mineral density in Japanese adolescents and postmenopausal women, with genetic susceptibility to both osteoporosis and vertebral fracture, and with the outcome of treatment for osteoporosis with active vitamin D. We have also shown that a C-509-->T polymorphism in the promoter region of this gene is associated with both bone mineral density and the prevalence of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. | 11740340 | 2001 |

0.050 | GeneticVariation | BEFREE | We have shown that a T(869)-->C polymorphism of the transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) gene, which results in a Leu-->Pro substitution at amino acid 10, is associated with bone mineral density in Japanese adolescents and postmenopausal women, with genetic susceptibility to osteoporosis or spinal osteoarthritis, and with the outcome of treatment for osteoporosis with active vitamin D. I here review our recent studies, which have provided insight into the function of TGF-beta1 as well as into the role of genetic factors in the development of osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. | 10996011 | 2000 |
