Methods Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were isolated and cultured and then prepared as experiment cells after 3 passages. HUVECs were divided into four groups randomly: PBS was added to culture medium in control group; 10, 25 and 50 ng/mL TGF-β1 were added to culture medium in TGF-β1 groups respectively. At culturing for 72 hours.The changes of cell morpholgy were observed w
