Decreased MiR-30a promotes TGF-β1-mediated arachnoid fibrosis in post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus
Abstract
Fibrosis in the ventricular system is closely associated with post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus (PHH). It is characterized by an expansion of the cerebral ventricles due to CSF accumulation following intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). The activation of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) may be involved in thrombin-induced arachnoid fibrosis.
