Silibinin Prevents TGFβ-Induced EMT of RPE in Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy by Inhibiting Stat3 and Smad3 Phosphorylation
31 Oct 2023
Abstract excerpt
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of silibinin on epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) and proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) formation, as well as its underlying molecular mechanism. Methods: Cellular morphological change and EMT molecular markers were evaluated by using phase contrast imaging, qPCR, and Western blot (WB) to investigate...
