Tanshinone IIA alters the transforming growth factor-1/Smads pathway in angiotensin II-treated rat hepatic stellate cells
Objective To investigate the effects of tanshinone IIA on the transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)/Smads signaling pathway in angiotensin II-treated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). Methods HSCs were cultured and treated with angiotensin II (10 μM) or angiotensin II (10 μM) plus tanshinone IIA (3, 1...
