Simvastatin inhibits TGFβ1-induced fibronectin in human airway fibroblasts
BACKGROUND: Bronchial fibroblasts contribute to airway remodelling, including airway wall fibrosis. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 plays a major role in this process. We previously revealed the importance of the mevalonate cascade in the fibrotic response of human airway smooth muscle cells. We...
