… in wound healing, we assessed the expression of α-SMA using an immunofluorescence
staining method. As shown in Figure 3, there was a significant increase of α-SMA … of α-SMA than …

… ) in reducing α-smooth muscle actin (SMA) expression in two … levels of haze and analyzed
for SMA mRNA levels. For the 3D … The RT-qPCR data showed that SMA mRNA expression in …

… -β1 and α-SMA). In conclusion, our findings suggest that the topically applied Spirulina
promoted wound healing. Thus, SP can be used as a biomedical application to treat various skin …

… under the influence of TNF-α in wound healing, we performed … α-SMA expression in Hs68
cells subjected to 3 ng/mL TNF-α … that α-SMA expression was weak in the cytosol of TNF-α-…

… study, PGA and CS suppressed wound contracture and reduced expression of α-SMA in …
of wound-healing dressing material. Based on our measurements of α-SMA expression, α-SMA …

… First, this study used fibroblasts from only one time point of the wound healing process,
that is, 10 days post-injury. Future studies should investigate kinetic changes at different …

… in α-SMA levels. However, α-SMA was incorporated into actin stress fibers only in young
cells. We believe that this defect in acto-myosin fiber remodeling and α-SMA incorporation into …

… necrosis factor–α (TNF-α) stimulation. We found TGF-β increased α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA)
and TNF-α alone decreased the basal α-SMA expression. When TGF-β1 and TNF-…

… impact on wound healing, we assessed the relative expression of TGF-β1, bFGF, and α-SMA
genes in the wound tissue. The relative expression of TGF-β1, bFGF, and α-SMA genes …

… Myofibroblasts are modified fibroblasts characterized by a well-developed contractile
apparatus and robust actin stress fibers, mainly α-SMA.45 Their task is to contract the …
