Purpose To study the role of TGF‐□1 on the expression of RHO GTPase, GSK3, JNK, MMP‐2, □‐catenin and □‐SMA in the myofibroblast cell culture of orbital socket contracture. Methods This research is an experimental research with invitro model of the myofibroblast cell culture of orbital socket contracture. □‐Sma expression examine with immunohistochemistry and confocal microscopy. Examination of the RHO GTPase, GSK3, JNK, MMP‐2, and □‐catenin expression using ELISA KIT, while the morphology of fibroblasts or myofibroblasts was examined by 100× magnification with an inverted Olympus IX 71 microscope and 400× magnification with CLSM FV1000 Results Increased dose of TGF‐□1 in passages 3 decreased the expression of a‐SMA and no morphological changes in myofibroblast cells. The morphology of myofibroblasts cells can not turn back into fibroblasts. Increased doses of TGF‐□1 increase JNK expression, slightly increase RHO GTPase expression, decrease GSK3 and a‐SMA expression, and doesn’t change MMP‐2 and □‐cathenine expression. Conclusions TGF‐□1 increase JNK expression and slightly RHO GTPase, but decrease the expression GSK3 and a‐SMA, and has no effect on MMP‐2 and □‐cathenine expression in Myofibroblast Cell Culture Orbital Soket Contracture.
