From: Gene expression profiling reveals novel TGFβ targets in adult lung fibroblasts
Independent verification of microarray results by measurement of gene expression with real time-PCR. TGFβ treatment (4 ng/ml) for four hours induces expression of mRNA for angiotensin receptor 1 (panel a), nuclear receptor co-repressor 2 (NCOR2) (panel c) and SMURF2 (panel d) as well as inhibition of bone morphogenetic protein 4 (panel b) in three control lung fibroblast cell lines (dashed lines) and three fibrotic lung fibroblasts (solid lines).
