Abstract
⺠LPA increases TGFBIp expression in human corneal fibroblasts. ⺠LPA induces TGFBIp expression by stimulating secretion of TGF-β1. ⺠Activation of JNK is involved in LPA-induced secretion of TGF-β1. ⺠Smad2/3 is involved in the LPA-induced TGFBIp expression. ⺠LPA-mediated activation of TGFBIp depends on LPA1 and autocrine secretion of TGF-β. ⺠LPA signaling may be used for the prevention of treatment for corneal diseases.
