A novel mechanism of Smads/miR‐675/TGFβR1 axis modulating the proliferation and remodeling of mouse cardiac fibroblasts
5 Apr 2019
Abstract excerpt
Cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) can over-proliferate during the progression of cardiac fibrosis, accompanied by a net accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins. Based on the profibrotic actions of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFβ1), investigating the mechanisms of TGFβ1 function in CFs may provide new directions to treatment for cardiac fibrosis. microRNAs (miRNAs) could control CFs proliferation or...
