Coenzyme Q0, a quinone derivative from Antrodia camphorata, inhibits epithelial-mesenchymal transition by activating the Nrf2 signaling pathway in TGF-β-stimulated adult retinal pigment epithelial cells to improve age-related macular degeneration and proliferative vitreoretinopathy

We investigated the anti-EMT and antifibrotic effects of coenzyme Q0 (CoQ0), a quinone derivative from Antrodia camphorata, in TGF-β-stimulated adult retinal pigment epithelial 19 (ARPE-19) cells. Results showed that CoQ0 treatment reversed TGF-β-stimulated morphological changes from an epithelial t...
