1 Effects of tacrolimus on the TGF-beta1/SMAD signaling pathway in paraquat-exposed rat alveolar type II epithelial cells. Tacrolimus transforming growth factor, beta 1 Rattus norvegicus
2 The expression levels of TGF-beta1, SMAD3 and CTGF, as well as their concentrations in the culture supernatant, were significantly downregulated in the tacrolimus group compared with the paraquat group. Tacrolimus transforming growth factor, beta 1 Rattus norvegicus
3 In conclusion, tacrolimus can reduce the levels of TGF-beta1, SMAD3 and CTGF, increase the level of SMAD7 in TGF-beta1 signaling pathway and protect the development of pulmonary fibrosis in paraquat exposed alveolar epithelial cells. Tacrolimus transforming growth factor, beta 1 Rattus norvegicus
4 In conclusion, tacrolimus can reduce the levels of TGF-beta1, SMAD3 and CTGF, increase the level of SMAD7 in TGF-beta1 signaling pathway and protect the development of pulmonary fibrosis in paraquat exposed alveolar epithelial cells. Tacrolimus transforming growth factor, beta 1 Rattus norvegicus
