Background Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) the primary metabolite of cyclooxygenase (COX) is a well-known anti-fibrotic agent. iPF and control fibroblast civilizations stimulated with IL-1β showed zero COX-2 appearance. IPF fibroblasts demonstrated elevated myofibroblast inhabitants and decreased COX-2 appearance in response to IL-1β. TGF-β1 increased the real LY364947 amount of myofibroblasts within a time-dependent way. On the… Continue reading Background Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) the primary metabolite of cyclooxygenase (COX) is
