Differential regulation of extracellular matrix and soluble fibulin-1 levels by TGF-β₁ in airway smooth muscle cells.
Fibulin-1 (FBLN-1) is a secreted glycoprotein that is associated with extracellular matrix (ECM) formation and rebuilding. Abnormal and exaggerated deposition of ECM proteins is a hallmark of many fibrotic diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) where small airway fibrosis occ...
