The effect of pirfenidone on the transcription of TGF-β and 18S rRNA at 14 days after BL instillation
Probes | Densitometry Reading | |
---|---|---|
BL + CD | BL + PD | |
TGF-β | 620 ± 132 | 416 ± 881-150 |
18S rRNA | 1412 ± 391 | 1502 ± 372 |
The nuclear run-off experiment was carried out as described inMaterials and Methods. Each value represents mean ± S.E. of five animals in duplicate experiments.
↵1-150 T test indicated that BL + PD treatment group was significantly lower (P ≤ .05) than that of BL + CD group.
