Abstract excerpt
TGFβ1 is very important in the synthesis and degradation of extracellular matrix, and also in the mediation of human lung fibroblasts proliferation, and miR-29 plays an important role in this process. To explore the interactions of miR-29 family members and TGFβ1, the effects of transforming growth factor TGFβ1 on the expression of miR-29 and whether miR-29 is involved in pro-survival signaling pathways mediated...
