There are three mammalian isoforms of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), namely TGF-β1, TGF-β2, and TGF-β3. These multifunctional cytokines signal through the same receptor and elicit similar biological responses. They play crucial roles in regulating cell proliferation, growth, differentiation, motility, and the synthesis and deposition of the extracellular matrix. The release of the biologically active TGF-β isoform from a latent complex involves intracellular proteolytic processing. TGF-β1 is the most abundant isoform that is secreted by nearly every cell type, and initially recognized for its ability to induce phenotypic transformation in fibroblasts. TGF-β1 has more recently been linked to skin tumor formation.
