Role of endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition induced by TGF‐β1 in transplant kidney interstitial fibrosis
Chronic allograft dysfunction (CAD) induced by kidney interstitial fibrosis is the main cause of allograft failure in kidney transplantation. Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) may play an important role in kidney fibrosis. We, therefore, undertook this study to characterize the functions and potential mechanism of EndMT in transplant kidney interstitial fibrosis. Proteins and mRNAs ...
متن کاملProtective Effect of Astaxanthin on Liver Fibrosis through Modulation of TGF-β1 Expression and Autophagy
Liver fibrosis is a common pathway leading to cirrhosis and a worldwide clinical issue. Astaxanthin is a red carotenoid pigment with antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory properties. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of astaxanthin on liver fibrosis and its potential protective mechanisms. Liver fibrosis was induced in a mouse model using CCL4 (intraperitoneal injecti...

this experimental study has been conducted to test the effect of oral presentation on the development of l2 learners grammar. but this oral presentation is not merely a deductive instruction of grammatical points, in this presentation two hypotheses of krashen (input and low filter hypotheses), stevicks viewpoints on grammar explanation and correction and widdowsons opinion on limited use of l1...
15 صفحه اولGhrelin Attenuates Liver Fibrosis through Regulation of TGF-β1 Expression and Autophagy
Ghrelin is a stomach-derived growth hormone secretagogue that promotes various physiological effects, including energy metabolism and amelioration of inflammation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the protective mechanism of ghrelin against liver fibrosis. Liver fibrosis was induced in C57BL/6 mice by intraperitoneal injection of CCl₄ (2.0 mL/kg of 10% CCl₄ v/v solution in peanut oi...
متن کاملConditional Expression of TGF-β1 in Skeletal Muscles Causes Endomysial Fibrosis and Myofibers Atrophy
To study the effects of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) on fibrosis and failure of regeneration of skeletal muscles, we generated a tet-repressible muscle-specific TGF-β1 transgenic mouse in which expression of TGF-β1 is controlled by oral doxycycline. The mice developed muscle weakness and atrophy after TGF-β1 over-expression. We defined the group of mice that showed phenotype withi...
