Figure 2From: DMF inhibits PDGF-BB induced airway smooth muscle cell proliferation through induction of heme-oxygenase-1 HO-1 induction inhibits ASMC proliferation. The HO-1 inducer cobalt-protoporphyrin (CoPP) and hemin inhibited PDGF-BB induced fibroblast proliferation after 24 h. Data represents mean ± SEM of six independent experiments performed in 3 ASMC lines. Statistics have been calculated by Mann Whitney test. "V" indicates the drug's vehicle 0.05% DMSO.Back to article page
