The effects of PRE on collagen gene transcription and its mechanism in vitro. (a) The expression of collagen genes was investigated by RT-PCR. (b) The expression of TGF-β/Smad signaling was measured by Western blot. Equal mRNA and protein loading were identified by GAPDH and α-tubulin, respectively. Data are represented as the mean SD from triplicate independent experiments. compared to normal; compared to UVB.
