TGF-β1 is a negative regulator of mucosal inflammation
• TGF-β1 null mice die of inflammation, including the gut
• Transgenic mice expressing a dominant-negative TGF-βRII chain develop severe colitis and pulmonary inflammation
• In mouse models of IBD, synthesis of TGF-β1 associates with either the protection from the development of colitis or greatly diminished severity of colitis

What is the functional role of Smad7 inmurine models of IBD?
Question?
