Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) regulates thrombospondin-1 and Nox4 expression in hypoxia-induced human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell proliferation

Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF- β1) and thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) are hypoxia-responsive mitogens that promote vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation, a critical event in the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension (PH). We previously demonstrated that hypoxia-induced human pulmonary arte...
