Modulation by 17,20S(OH)<sub>2</sub>pD of Fibrosis-Related Mediators in Dermal Fibroblast Lines from Healthy Donors and from Patients with Systemic Sclerosis
We previously demonstrated that the non-calcemic pregnacalciferol (pD) analog 17,20S (OH)<sub>2</sub>pD suppressed TGF-β1-induced type I collagen production in cultured normal human dermal fibroblasts. In the present studies, we examined fibroblasts cultured from the lesional skin of pat...
