Nitric oxide attenuated transforming growth factor-β induced myofibroblast differentiation of human keratocytes
Abstract Nitric oxide (NO) has the potential to modulate myofibroblast differentiation. In this study, we investigated the effect of exogenous NO on the myofibroblast differentiation of human keratocytes using sodium nitrite as a NO donor. Myofibroblasts were induced by exposing resting keratocytes...
