Transforming growth factor (TGF) beta2 gene expression was examined in murine, rat and human lung by in situ hybridization with riboprobes. Hybridization signal was observed in a variety of cells with the sense probe, and Northern-blot analysis with this probe demonstrated the presence of a novel 3.5 kb transcript. This first report suggesting the existance of a natural TGFbeta2 antisense transcript raises the possibility that such a transcript may play a role in regulating TGFbeta2 production.
通过与核糖探针进行原位杂交,在小鼠、大鼠和人类肺组织中检测了转化生长因子(TGF)β2基因的表达。用正义探针在多种细胞中观察到杂交信号,用该探针进行的Northern印迹分析表明存在一种新的3.5 kb转录本。这篇首次报道提示存在天然TGFβ2反义转录本的文章,增加了这种转录本可能在调节TGFβ2产生中发挥作用的可能性。
