AIM: To determine if triptolide influences the contractility and fibronectin production in human Tenon fibroblasts (HTFs).METHODS: HTFs were cultured in type I collagen gels with or without transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) and/or triptolide. The diameter of the collagen gel was used to measure contraction. Immunoblot analysis was used to quantify myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation and integrin expression. Laser confocal fluorescence microscopy was used to monitor the formation of actin stress fibers. Fibronectin production was measured with an enzyme immunoassay.RESULTS: Triptolide inhibition of contraction in TGF-beta-induced collagen gel mediated by HTFs was dose dependent and statistically significant at 3 nmol/L (P
