Pro-fibrotic effects of all-trans retinoic acid in transforming growth factor-β1-induced fibrogenesis in renal fibroblasts
Retinoids, including the prototypic vitamin A and its main bioactive form, alltrans retinoic acid (tRA), have both anti- and pro-fibrotic effects in renal disease models. To understand and prevent the pro-fibrotic effects of retinoids it is important to establish in vitro models. This work aimed to...
