Abstract: 
To study the function of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-&beta%29&ck%5B%5D=abstract&ck%5B%5D=keyword'>TGF-&beta;1) and transforming growth factor-β type II receptor (TGF-&beta%29&ck%5B%5D=abstract&ck%5B%5D=keyword'>TGF-&beta;r II) in varying stages of colorectal adenoma during neoplastic transformation, fifty-five cases of resected colorectal adenomas were examined immunohistochemically. Our results showed that the expression of TGF-&beta%29&ck%5B%5D=abstract&ck%5B%5D=keyword'>TGF-&beta;1 ranged from high to low, with the progression of low-grade to high-grade dysplasia of adenomas to carcinoma. And there was significantly different expression of TGF-&beta%29&ck%5B%5D=abstract&ck%5B%5D=keyword'>TGF-&beta;1 between moderate and high dysplasia adenomas (P<0.05), but no significantly different expression of TGF-&beta%29&ck%5B%5D=abstract&ck%5B%5D=keyword'>TGF-&beta; r II was found among varying stages of adenomas. Our results suggested that the quantities of TGF-&beta%29&ck%5B%5D=abstract&ck%5B%5D=keyword'>TGF-&beta;1 secreted by adenoma cells decrease dramatically in moderate to severe dysplasia colorectal adenomas. It is the decreased secretion of TGF-&beta%29&ck%5B%5D=abstract&ck%5B%5D=keyword'>TGF-&beta;1, rather than the mutated TGF-&beta%29&ck%5B%5D=abstract&ck%5B%5D=keyword'>TGF-&beta;r II that may play an important role in transforming colorectal adenomas to adenocarcinomas.
