Fig. 9. Schematic illustration of the mechanisms of Acp5 in fibroblasts.

Fig. 9

Acp5 is upregulated by TGF-β1 in a TGFβR1/Smad3 depend manner, and then Acp5 specially binds to p-β-catenin and dephosphorylate the sites of Ser33 and Thr41, by which it resists the degradation of β-catenin and enhanced β-catenin signaling in the nuclear to promote the differentiation, proliferation and migration of fibroblasts.
