The levels of Col. I protein were determined by ELISA kit as indicated. Results were expressed as mean ± SE of three independent experiments performed in triplicate. ##Significant difference versus Control, Negative control, and SRV4 (); ▲▲Significant difference versus SRV4 and TGF-β1 (); **Significant difference versus SRV4 (, ); ΔSignificant difference versus SM4 + TGF + SA-B, SM4 + TGF + SB, and TGF + SA-B + SB (, ). |
