Role of Transforming Growth Factor-β1 and Smads Signaling Pathway in Intrauterine Adhesion.

abstract：:Bortezomib is a proteasome inhibitor used for hematologic cancer treatment. Since it can suppress NF-κB activation, which is critical for the inflammatory process, bortezomib has been found to possess anti-inflammatory activity. In this study, we evaluated the effect of bortezomib on experimental autoimmune uveitis (E...
