The Anti-fibrotic Effects and Mechanisms of MicroRNA-486-5p in Pulmonary Fibrosis
To identify microRNAs (miRNAs, miRs) with potential roles in lung fibrogenesis, we performed genome-wide profiling of miRNA expression in lung tissues from a silica-induced mouse model of pulmonary fibrosis using microarrays. Seventeen miRNAs were selected for validation via qRT-PCR based on the fold changes between the silica and the control group. The dysregulation of five miRNAs, including m...
متن کاملAnti-fibrotic Potential of AT2 Receptor Agonists
There are a number of therapeutic targets to treat organ fibrosis that are under investigation in preclinical models. There is increasing evidence that stimulation of the angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2R) is a novel anti-fibrotic strategy and we have reviewed the published in vivo preclinical data relating to the effects of compound 21 (C21), which is the only nonpeptide AT2R agonist that i...
متن کاملAnti-fibrotic effects of valproic acid in experimental peritoneal fibrosis
BACKGROUND Progressive fibrous thickening of the peritoneal membrane is a complication of long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD). TGF-β/Smad pathway activation, inflammation, and neoangiogenesis play important roles in peritoneal membrane (PM) changes induced by PD. Recently, histone deacetilase inhibitors (HDACi) have shown anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory effects in different experimental mode...
متن کاملProteomics and microRNA profiling in cardiac fibrosis
Cardiac fibrosis is characterized by the deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) and mediated by cardiac fibroblasts via the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) signaling pathways. Recognition of TGFβ by fibroblasts leads to myofibroblast differentiation as well as induction of ECM protein expression. An imbalance between proand anti-fibrotic signals resul...
متن کاملHistone deacetylase: a potential therapeutic target for fibrotic disorders.
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that balance the acetylation activities of histone acetyltransferases on chromatin remodeling and play essential roles in regulating gene transcription. In the past several years, the role of HDACs in cancer initiation and progression, as well as the therapeutic effects of HDAC inhibitors in various types of cancer, has been well studied. Recent studies ...
