Transforming growth factor- (TGF- ) exerts several effects on target cells, such as neovascularization promotion and mitogenic signalling. Using immunoelectron microscopy, we show that monocytes and neutrophils, store TGF- in cytoplasmic granules. In monocytes, TGF- did not colocalize with components of peroxidase-positive granules or with albumin of secretory vesicles. Furthermore, no colocalization of TGF- with components of azurophilic or specific granules or secretory vesicles was observed in neutrophils. Activated monocytes and tissue-macrophages contained much less TGF- -positive granules, suggesting TGF- release. Western blot analysis showed a protein of 10 kD in lysates of monocytes. TGF- mRNA was detected in monocytoid cells from the bone marrow by in situ hybridization. This study shows for the first time that monocytes and neutrophils contain TGF- in all stages of maturation and that TGF- in monocytes is stored in a large population of peroxidase-negative granules suggesting a function for these granules. Monocytes and neutrophils are important effector cells in inflammatory reactions. The present finding that these cells contain TGF- might explain complications such as fibrosis and neoplastic transformation, caused by chronic inflammation.
