Estrogen inhibits TGF‑β1‑stimulated cardiac fibroblast differentiation and collagen synthesis by promoting Cdc42
17 May 2024
Abstract excerpt
17β‑estradiol (E2) can inhibit cardiac fibrosis in female patients with heart failure (HF) and activate cell division cycle 42 (Cdc42), however it is unknown whether 17β‑estradiol (E2) can ameliorate differentiation and collagen synthesis in TGF‑β1‑stimulated mouse cardiac fibroblasts (MCFs) by regulating cell division cycle 42 (Cdc42). The present study aimed to investigate the roles of estrogen and Cdc42 in...
