The geranyl acetophenone tHGA attenuates human bronchial smooth muscle proliferation via inhibition of AKT phosphorylation
Abstract Increased airway smooth muscle (ASM) mass is a prominent hallmark of airway remodeling in asthma. Inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting beta2-agonists remain the mainstay of asthma therapy, however are not curative and ineffective in attenuating airway remodeling. The geranyl acetophenone...
