“…It has been shown that elevated glycaemia activates inflammatory cells (neutrophils, macrophages, blood platelets) to TGF-β production. Excessive secretion and activity of TGF-β have been confirmed in diabetic nephropathy and retinopathy, and also in other pathological conditions [62]. However, in the present study, diabetes did not have a significant effect on TGF-β concentration, which was similar in both groups.…”

“…Serum TGF-β1 levels were found significantly higher in diabetic nephropathy patients (group III). These results are supported by Shaker et al [15]. Yaqiu et al and Shaker et al indicated that TGF-β1 levels increased in diabetic patients in accordance with various stages of albuminuria.…”

“…We also observed a positive and significant correlation of serum TGF-β1 level with HbA1c, fasting blood glucose and post prandial blood glucose. Shaker et al also reported a positive significant correlation between serum TGF-β1 and both glucose concentration and HbA1c [15]. Ibrahim et al have also found that serum TGF-β1 was significantly increased in patients with poor glycemic control with variable degree of renal dysfunction as compared to those with good glycemic control and comparable degree of renal dysfunction.…”
