Article Synopsis
- The study investigates whether quercetin can reduce fibrogenic responses in endometrial stromal cells by boosting microRNA-145 (miR-145) levels and affecting the TGFβ1/Smad2/Smad3 signaling pathway, aiming to find new treatment strategies for endometrial fibrosis.
- Methods included measuring the expression of miR-145 and TGFβ receptor 2 (TGFBR2) using RT-qPCR, assessing proteins related to fibrosis with immunofluorescence and western blot, and using dual-luciferase reporter assays to confirm the interaction between miR-145 and TGFBR2.
- Results showed that quercetin effectively upregulates miR
