High glucose upregulates connective tissue growth factor expression in human vascular smooth muscle cells
BACKGROUND: Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is a potent profibrotic factor, which is implicated in fibroblast proliferation, angiogenesis and extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis. It is a downstream mediator of some of the effects of transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) and is potentially indu...
