Targeting fibrotic signaling pathways by EGCG as a therapeutic strategy for uterine fibroids
Abstract Fibrosis is characterized by excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix, which is a key feature of uterine fibroids. Our prior research supports the tenet that inhibition of fibrotic processes may restrict fibroid growth. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a green tea compound with powerf...
