Abstract
Expression of elastin mRNA and protein is upregulated in TADF by TGF-β1. PTX has no effect on elastin production but attenuates elastogenesis in TADF through an AAT1-related mechanism.

Pentoxifylline attenuates TGF-β1-stimulated elastogenesis in human tunica albuginea-derived fibroblasts Part 2: interference in a TGF-β1/Smad-dependent mechanism and downregulation of aat1.
