1.The latency of TGF-beta and chronicity of renal diseasesOur previous studies demonstrated that in a chronic renal disease model, most of TGF-beta is not activated and exsits as a latent form in tissue. The tissue storage of latent TGF-beta may be important for chronicity of histological changes. Tissue localization of latent TGF-beta was examined in vitro and in vivo. The matrices from mesangial cell cultures were shown to contain a large amount of latent TGF-beta. In an experimental FGS model, latent TGF-beta accumulates in the sclerosing glomeruli and the fibrous interstitium extensively and coexists with the other matrix proteins. The matrix-associated latent TGF-beta may serve as a chronic stimulus driving new ECM synthesis, which is important for both keeping and developing sclerosis or fibrotic tissues.2.The effect of TGF-beta soluble receptor on renal fibrosisThe TGF-beta soluble receptor, which is extracellular domain of TGF-beta type 2 receptor has been expected to inhibit TGF-beta action in renal diseases. The gene of the soluble receptor was transfectd to muscle in rats with unilateral ureter obstruction, using adenovirus vectors. The interstitial fibrosis was attenuated in association with the increased serum levels of the soluble receptor. TGF-beta soluble receptor is a potent inhibitor of TGF-beta to modulate renal histological lesions.

1. TGF-beta的潜伏期和肾脏疾病的慢性性先前的研究表明，在慢性肾脏疾病模型中，大多数TGF-β没有被激活，并且在组织中作为潜在形式。潜在TGF-β的组织存储对于组织学变化的慢性性可能很重要。在体外和体内检查了潜在TGF-β的组织定位。显示出来自肾小球细胞培养物的矩阵包含大量潜在的TGF-β。在实验性FGS模型中，潜在的TGF-β积累在硬化肾小球和纤维间质中，并与其他基质蛋白共存。 The matrix-associated latent TGF-beta may serve as a chronic stimulus driving new ECM synthesis, which is important for both keeping and developing sclerosis or fibrotic tissues.2.The effect of TGF-beta soluble receptor on renal fibrosisThe TGF-beta soluble receptor, which is extracellular domain of TGF-beta type 2 receptor has been expected to inhibit TGF-beta action在肾脏疾病中。使用腺病毒载体，可溶性受体的基因转染为具有单侧输尿管阻塞的大鼠的肌肉。与可溶性受体的血清水平升高相关的间质纤维化。 TGF-β溶解受体是TGF-β的有效抑制剂，可调节肾脏组织学病变。
