BACKGROUND: Hepatitis C virus as a major cause of chronic liver disease affects more than 170 million people worldwide. Ribavirin 96-105 transforming growth factor beta 1 Homo sapiens 10-19 16699498-5 2006 Combination therapy with interferon and ribavirin affects the tissue expression of TGF-beta-1 and NF-kappaB and favors metalloproteinase activity, and may thereby modulate hepatic fibrogenetic events. Ribavirin 40-49 transforming growth factor beta 1 Homo sapiens 83-93 24496160-12 2014 CONCLUSION: Overexpression of COX-2 and TGF-beta1 is an independent predictor for poor outcome of interferon and ribavirin therapy and these might be useful markers for the response to treatment.

AIM: To evaluate the effect of antiviral treatment on plasma levels of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1), metalloproteinase 1 (MMP-1), and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) in patients with chronic hepatitis C. METHODS: TGF-beta1, MMP-1, and TIMP-1 plasma concentrations were measured by an enzyme immunoassay in 28 patients, during 48 wk of treatment with pegylated interferon-alpha 2b (PEG-IFN-alpha2b) plus ribavirin (RBV) and after 24 wk of follow-up. Ribavirin 45-54 transforming growth factor beta 1 Homo sapiens 75-107 15896245-3 2005 We undertook this study to simultaneously evaluate the effect of interferon alpha 2b plus ribavirin therapy on TGF-beta1 daily serum levels and on mRNA TGF-beta1 expression in liver biopsy specimens from 60 patients with chronic hepatitis C. METHODS: Serum levels of TGF-beta1 were measured by ELISA.
