We have computed the luminosity rest frame light curves of the first 40 Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by Swift with well established redshift. We studied average properties of the light curves in the four subsamples of bursts given by z<1, 1=4. We conclude that all the last three subsamples share the same morphology and the same luminosity range. Very high redshift (z>=4) GRBs detected up to now are not intrinsically longer than lower redshift long GRBs. Nearby long GRBs (z<1) are fainter than average. Possible selection effect are under investigation.
