## Abstract Previous studies have demonstrated that transforming growth factor‐β3 (TGF‐β3) protected liver against fibrosis in vivo and vitro, but its regulation is poorly understood. In addition, the cAMP‐responsive element (CRE) in TGF‐β3 promoter is recognized as an important regulatory site for

Objective. To investigate the role of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and transforming growth factor pl (TGFp1) in the regulation of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) synthesis in human articular chondrocytes. Methods. Articular cartilage was obtained from human knee joints 24 hours after deat
Oxidative stress plays a key role in liver fibrosis. Both inflammatory cells and activated Kupffer cells produce H 2 O 2 , an oxidant involved in the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSC). Increased production of reactive oxygen intermediates (ROIs) in fibrotic livers is associated in part with
