TGF – β1
• A member of the transforming growth
factor beta (TGF-β) family

• Three closely related isoforms TGF- β1,
TGF-β2, and TGF-β3
TGF-β1
• inhibition of cell growth and
transformation

• suppression of immune response
• promotion of inflammation
• a critical regulator of trophoblast
invasion and fetal growth.
Intrauterine growth
restriction-IUGR
• Failure of the fetus to achieve his/her
intrinsic growth potential

• Consequence of anatomical and/or

functional disorders and diseases in the
feto-placental-maternal unit

• Results to increased morbidity and

mortality in intra- and extrauterine life
IUGR
• abnormal trophoblast invasion
• uteroplacental vascular insufficiency
• impaired fetal growth
HYPOTHESIS
• Umbilical cord blood concentrations of

TGF -β1 in IUGR cases may differ from
respective concentrations in appropriatefor-gestational-age (AGA) controls, due
to uteroplacental vascular insufficiency
AIM
•

Investigate cord blood TGF -β1
concentrations in IUGR and AGA
pregnancies at birth

•

Correlate determined concentrations
with gestational age, gender and mode
of delivery.
SUBJECTS
• 160 healthy, singleton full-term

pregnancies
- 1 10 AGA (placental weight: 480-621 g)
- 50 asymmetric IUGR ( placental weight
230- 400g)

• Apgar scores: > 8 in 1 st and 5 th minute

CAUSES OF IUGR
• Preeclampsia ( n=6 )
• Pregnancy induced hypertension
(n=5 )

• Various diseases : severe type I DM
•

( n=5),iron deficiency anemia (n=3),
hypothyroidism (n=7)
Maternal smoking ( n=24 )
Methods
•
•
•

Blood collected from:
Doubly-clamped umbilical cords (m ixed
arteriovenous blood ) – reflecting fetal
state
Determination of plasma TGF -β1
concentrations by enzyme immunoassay
( Human TGF- β 1 ELISA, R&D OX, UK)
Statistical analysis (non-parametric
tests)

AGA GROUP
(N=110)

IUGR GROUP
(N=50)
Results (1)

• No statistically significant differences in
cord blood TGF -β1 concentrations
between IUGR and AGA groups .
Results (2)
• In a combined group
• Cord blood TGF -β1 concentrations were

significantly elevated in cases of vaginal
delivery

• The effect of gender, parity and maternal
age on cord blood TGF-β1
concentrations was not significant.
Results (3)
• In the AGA group
• Cord blood TGF-β1 concentrations were
higher in primigravidas
Results (4)
• In the IUGR group
• Cord blood TGF- β1 concentrations
negatively correlated with infant’s
customized centiles
Conclusions (1)
• Lack of differences in cord blood TGF- β 1

•

concentrations at term between IUGR
and AGA groups possibly suggests that
TGF- β 1 may not be directly involved in
the pathophysiological processes
resulting in IUGR
Gender, parity and maternal age do not
seem to have any impact on umbilical
cord blood TGF- β 1 concentrations
Conclusions (2)
• TGF-β1 may be related to fetal growth,

as indicated by the higher cord blood
TGF-β1 concentrations in primigravidas
and their negative correlation with
infants’ customized centiles in the IUGR
group
Conclusions (3)
• Stress associated with vaginal delivery
may account for the higher TGF-β1
concentrations in the latter.

  • 15. Results (2) • In a combined group • Cord blood TGF -β1 concentrations were significantly elevated in cases of vaginal delivery • The effect of gender, parity and maternal age on cord blood TGF-β1 concentrations was not significant.
  • 16. Results (3) • In the AGA group • Cord blood TGF-β1 concentrations were higher in primigravidas
  • 17. Results (4) • In the IUGR group • Cord blood TGF- β1 concentrations negatively correlated with infant’s customized centiles
  • 18. Conclusions (1) • Lack of differences in cord blood TGF- β 1 • concentrations at term between IUGR and AGA groups possibly suggests that TGF- β 1 may not be directly involved in the pathophysiological processes resulting in IUGR Gender, parity and maternal age do not seem to have any impact on umbilical cord blood TGF- β 1 concentrations
  • 19. Conclusions (2) • TGF-β1 may be related to fetal growth, as indicated by the higher cord blood TGF-β1 concentrations in primigravidas and their negative correlation with infants’ customized centiles in the IUGR group
  • 20. Conclusions (3) • Stress associated with vaginal delivery may account for the higher TGF-β1 concentrations in the latter.

  1. The tgfbmrana is preferentially expressed in crypt rether than villous ,proliferation is stimulated by alpha and switched off by b1 Most common isoform mRNA for TGF/3 and immunoreactive TGFb have been demonstrated in human placenta throughout pregnancy (16). In addition, receptors have been detected for TGFPbin the placenta (17,
  2. The tgf-bs have diverse range of biological effects and affect almost every cell in the body Stimulare extracellular matrix production,prevent ecm production,inflammmatory cells TGF-B de®ciency resulted in severe pathology leading to deathat about 20 days of age associated with dysfunction of the immune and in¯ammatory system, indicating its essential role as a potent regulator of the immune and in¯ammatory system.
  3. Tolernce implantation of embryo and gestation// Regulation of the local maternal immune response may be necessary to prevent immune rejection of the fetus. TGF/3 is a multifunctional peptide with potent immunosuppressive activities, including inhibition of interleukin-l/3 (IL-l/3)-induced lymphocyte proliferation, lymphokine-activated killer cell activity, cytotoxic T-cell activity,natural killer cell activity, and macrophage cytotoxicity TGFP also inhibits many of the immunostimulatory properties of IL-lp (22). The researchers suggested that the increase in decidual IL-l@ and HLA-DRLU during pregnancy may be involved in maternal recognition of the fetal allograft and that TGF/3 production may regulatethe local maternal immune response and prevent rejection of the fetus. nhibit enterocyte proliferation + induce terminal differentiation+repair of mucosal epithelium after injury+epithelial restitution…INHIBIT PROLIFERATION
  4. Kauma et al. (22) found higher levels of mRNA for TGFPl in decidualized gestational endometrium compared to proliferative (5-fold less) or secretory endometrium (2.5-fold less). This could indicate that the presence of trophoblast and/or the hormonal milieu of pregnancy resulted in an induction of mRNA for TGFPl. An additional reported function of TGFP is one of immunosuppression.
  5. Tgfb1 lower in iugr, positive correlation with birth weight(ostlund)
  6. 5th customized centile
  7. The Gestation Related Optimal Weight computer-generated program was used to calculate the customized centile for each pregnancy taking into consideration significant determinants of birth weight, such as maternal height and booking weight, ethnic group, parity, gestational age and gender
  8. >10 cigarettes perday during pregnancy
  9. Plasma preparation platelet –poor plasma
  10. B1 increased in preeclampsia Conflict in bibliography =elevated and no difference Ostlund IUGR=decreased in IUGR but!!! Measured in serum and isolated IUGR NOT prreclampsia
  11. Maternal system inflammatory status!!!!=conflict in bibliography
