... administration. In addition, female mice evidenced a stronger phenotypic improvement than male mice. In female mice treated with tranexamic acid, ovary abnormalities were reduced. Furthermore, the levels of transforming growth factor-β, hyaluronic acid, CD44, reactive oxygen species, and apoptosis, as well...

... treatment on CsA-induced signaling through the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)/Smad pathway was evaluated by immunoblot analysis in cultured primary rat mesangial cells. Treatment of cells with 1 µmol/l MPA did not significantly decrease the CsA-induced expression of TGF-β 1 , but partially reversed...

... to decrease renal interstitial fibrosis, we hypothesized that the protective effect of statins was related to the expression of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and type IV collagen (Col IV). Methods: Cultured rat mesangial cells (RMC) were exposed to high glucose (HG), advanced glycosylation end products...
