Fig. 8From: Identification of Timm13 protein translocase of the mitochondrial inner membrane as a potential mediator of liver fibrosis based on bioinformatics and experimental verificationSilencing Timm13 reduced the expression of fibrosis and apoptosis genes. The expression of fibrosis genes (α-SMA, COL-1, MMP9, TIMP1) and apoptosis genes (BAX, BAD) decreased after silencing Timm13. (α-SMA, COL-1, MMP9, TIMP1, BAX, P < 0.05; BAD, P = 0.0813)Back to article page
