Azithromycin 36-48 receptor for activated C kinase 1 Mus musculus 264-269 29567590-7 2018 Moreover, the increasing mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-beta1 and RACK1 and mRNA level of Snail in lung tissue were all significantly decreased in azithromycin-treated mice (P < 0.05). Azithromycin 152-164 receptor for activated C kinase 1 Mus musculus 71-76 29567590-8 2018 Taken together, our results suggest that azithromycin has the greatest effects on reducing airway remodeling by inhibiting TGF-beta1/RACK1/Snail signal and improving the EMT in airway epithelium.
