Immunoexpression of TGF-β/Smad and VEGF-A proteins in serum and BAL fluid of sarcoidosis patients

BACKGROUND: The chronic course of pulmonary sarcoidosis can lead to lung dysfunction due to fibrosis, in which the signalling pathways TGF-β/Smad and VEGF-A may play a key role. METHODS: We evaluated immunoexpression of TGF-β(1), Smad2, 3, and 7, and VEGF-A in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL)...
