Role of lung ornithine aminotransferase in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: regulation of mitochondrial ROS generation and TGF-β1 activity
Abstract Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is characterized by aberrant lung remodeling and the excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. In a previous study, we found that the levels of ornithine aminotransferase (OAT), a principal enzyme in the proline metabolism pathway, we...
